A very elegant pair of floral birds — delicate floral designs across the back and chest, with brushed gold on the beaks and tails.
Maker: Unmarked (original foil label: "Genuine Bone China, Taiwan")
Materials: Bone china
Dimensions: Both approx. 2.5" tall, 3.0" long, 1.75" wide
Origin: Taiwan
Era: Vintage, 1970s
Condition: Average — one bird has a very thin crack running from the front of the chest to the back, photographed, best used for display or crafting; the other has a small spot missing gold on the tail, not a chip; both retain original stoppers. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
They still retain the original foil label marked "Genuine Bone China, Taiwan," though unbranded beyond that. The delicate floral design adorns the backs and chest, with brushed gold accents on the beaks and tails.
Best used for display, given the condition — lovely for a spring or Easter kitchen vignette, or a collector of figural bone china.
Fine bone china bird figurals like this pair were a popular Taiwanese export category throughout the 1970s, prized for their delicate detail and floral motifs.
