Mid-Century Italian Pottery Fragment of Woman modern spoon rest from bride saying "I will"

from bride saying "I will" to groom who has lost the ring

probably in the 1970s or 80s

Such proud things in all respects

with some aging to the surface as pictured and a bit of bending to the tab on one side at the very bottom

I just had the thought that maybe H Manning was a magician and this was a trick box

Mid-Century Italian Pottery Fragment of Woman modern spoon rest from bride saying "I will"This face appears to be large fragment from a mid century Italian pottery piece, as it has a rough bottom edge, though I suppose it could have been made just as it is. At any rate, large enough to treat as a small sculpture and set on a shelf, or whatever. Lovely. 5 1 4" w x 4 1 4" t x 5 8" thick and in very good condition.
