We
here at www.wingsonthings.com are
most pleased to be offering BIRD POTTERY for you to consider as
part of your home decorating ideas.
And, as BIRD POTTERY goes, there are few specimens more becoming
than what we refer to as our “Humming Bird with Parrots” piece.
The
vase itself is shaped like an old-fashioned water pot - broad at the center and
tapered at both ends. The rounding of
its bottom necessitates the use of the cloth-covered ring that is included with
the vase.
What
makes it so unique, and beautiful, however, are the fowl that adorn it. There are two “beige sides,” which are
separated by black bands with diamond-shaped markings and rust colored bands. On one side is a delicately colored gray and
tan humming bird “working” a green and rust colored flower.
The
other side of this piece of BIRD POTTERY features a parrot painted with
muted blue/green and rust coloring.
Perched on a brown branch with green and tan leaves, its “delicacy”
enhances the over-all beauty of this particular example of BIRD POTTERY.
