Archive note

Promotional poster for a rumored limited-edition porcelain figurine collection, never officially released by a major European manufacturer. The subtitle—"Subversion in Porcelain. The Secret Edition"—suggests a clandestine collaboration between a design house and underground artists in the early 1980s. A pastel-clad jester in glossy ceramic finish dominates the composition, rendered in a style that bridges avant-garde toy design and high-craft collectibility. Collectors of lost design objects and suppressed limited editions.
