Abstract Faces Mid Century Studio Pottery and Wood Wall Art by Harold Nosti

Mid Century Studio Pottery Mixed Media Wall Art by Harold Nosti. Six abstract faces framed in wood with Nosti’s signature glazes in natural shades accentuated by blue and purple. Purchased from the estate of the original owners, an architect and ceramicist couple who actively supported the Tampa artist community. A wonderful piece with great dimension and visual interest. Dimensions: 30.5”W x 24.75”H x 3”D

Condition: Overall great vintage condition, ceramic pieces have no chips, cracks or issues. Wood components have some fading as age appropriate wear. Two of the applied wood pieces around the faces have some play/movement. Will reinforce as much as possible prior to shipping without altering the original design.
