Vintage pair of Italian glazed ceramic birds of prey, likely falcons or hawks, hand-painted in rich, warm tones of burnt amber, ochre, chestnut brown, and soft charcoal. Each bird features distinct expressiveness and anatomical detail. Perched atop stylized faux-bois branches set upon off-white glazed bases, one falcon holds a watchful, upright gaze while its companion bows forward in a dynamic, attentive posture.
Both figures bear the original red oval "Made in Italy" foil label on the underside, along with hand-painted production marks ("S/114").
- Set of two birds
- 11"H and 9.75"H, respectively
- Made in Italy, mid-to-late 20th Century (circa 1960s–1970s)
