Miss Melba is a handmade painted ; hand built a one of a kind original work. My idea it is to be used as a planter or a vase. It holds water. It can be used indoors all outside is kept outside for over 12 months. Please replace the wire in the earrings as it tends to get brittle. This item is very heavy. You can tell that is taking me a lot of days and hours to hand coil and build this particular head pot. I wanted the pot to have a quizzical expression so that way when it’s on a kitchen table or in a house it’s a talking point. It’s got lovely colours to suit most decorative interiors with a beautiful bunch of flowers or a standard green plant. It will suit every environment. The face is sort of modelled on the Mexican artist Frida Kala
