About the Item
This is an old toy soccer ball.
Over the years, the outer material has peeled off, exposing the inner material. The appearance, which has changed naturally over time, has a beauty that could not be created by human hands.
All of the elements, such as the faded color of the material and the frayed seams, have come together to form its current appearance.
We believe that this is a valuable piece of accidental beauty.
We recommend displaying this accidental beauty as it ages as a figurine or using it as an object.
