AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

For sale is an absolute highlight and rare collectible from the postmodern design of the 1980s: a striking head vase in a Cubist avant-garde style, created as a tribute to the legendary pop icon Grace Jones.

The design draws heavily on the world-famous sculptural creations of British cult artist Lindsey B (Lindsey Balkweill) from this era.

Special quality feature:
The signature and copyright year are deeply and clearly impressed into the clay on the underside (directly from the mold). The absence of industrial mass-production model numbers, together with the impressed signature, points to professional, exclusive workshop or small-batch production in 1987. Among collectors, this piece is considered a real insider tip and an exceptionally rare eye-catcher.

The vase is in perfect condition, with no damage.
