Fat Chance For Sale on 1stDibs

On 1stDibs, you can find the most appropriate fat chance for your needs in our varied inventory. There are many modern, Pop Art and Surrealist versions of these works for sale. If you’re looking for a fat chance from a specific time period, our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and you’ll find at least one that dates back to the 20th Century while another version may have been produced as recently as the 21st Century. On 1stDibs, the right fat chance is waiting for you and the choices span a range of colors that includes black. A fat chance from Bill Phelps and FPA Francis Pavy Artist — each of whom created distinctive versions of this kind of work — is worth considering. Frequently made by artists working in archival pigment print, pigment print and canvas, these artworks are unique and have attracted attention over the years. A large fat chance can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller fat chance, measuring 5 high and 5 wide, may better suit your needs.
