Description

Hand-painted porcelain duck figurine, 1970s

Decorative, large-format drake figure made of glazed porcelain/ceramic, dating from the second half of the 20th century.
The figurine depicts a drake in a characteristic, dynamic pose.
The body is covered with rich, multicoloured decoration in shades of white, green, navy blue, black, brown and gold.
The surface is heavily glazed, and the decoration has a distinctly handcrafted character.

This model was available in various colourways.
The example presented is distinguished by particularly striking, contrasting painting on the wings and plumage.

The figurine is highly decorative and looks equally good in classic and modern interiors.
It can make an interesting addition to a collection of vintage items, art porcelain or bird-themed decoration.
