Bull
Tile by Tile
or plaque with stylized bull in medium relief, and covered
in a dark blue-green high glaze. Thirslund
had a small studio in the 1950's. His work is highly
regarded by Danish collectors, though is seldom seen in the
U.S. This is the first piece we have had. There
is a small glaze chip in the upper left hand corner -- just
visible in the photo at left. Easily repaired, or covered if
framed. However, our price reflects this defect. $
