Up for sale is a beautiful, highly collectible mid-century modern \"Joy\" harp planter figurine produced by the renowned Florence Ceramics studio in Pasadena, California. Released in 1950, this charming piece exemplifies the gorgeous artistry, soft coloring, and elegant molding that Florence Ward’s studio was celebrated for during the golden era of California pottery.
This model features \"Joy\" elegantly seated next to a classical harp which serves as the opening for a delicate bud vase or plant slips. The underside displays the official impressed and stamped makers mark reading \"Pasadena California - Florence Ceramics - Copyright\".
Condition :
This vintage piece is in stable decorative condition but exhibits honest signs of age. There is a tight, clean glaze hairline crack where the harp molding meets the figure\'s shoulder/collar area and minor handling wear to the cold-painted gold gilt accents. The delicate applied blue ceramic flowers in her hair remain intact. Please review all macro photographs carefully as they serve as the final evaluation of condition.
