Ceramic sculpture that looks like a leather purse. Purse is brown in color and has a rope handle that consists of a single loop that crosses the bottom, is attached to the purse by two flaps each on front and back sides, and is joined at the top by a ceramic 'clasp' with metal 'snaps.' Purse has a single flap closure on top and a small vertical pocket on each side, each with a metal 'snap' closure.

You might be interested in the original price -it was $350 when first sold. The Nashes are recorded as the sole owners and I believe they purchased it from the Hansen Fuller Gallery. I'm attaching a jpg.Cheers,SamSam JornlinVoulkos & Co. Catalogue ProjectP.O. Box 11974Berkeley, CA 94712Tel. 510.654.3663www.voulkos.com
