A beautiful pair of Dresden Porcelain Parrots we recently acquired of of a local estate. While we generally focus on 20th century design we found these attractive pieces too interesting to pass up. The taller one stands 12.75 inches high. The shorter one is approximately 12 inches tall. They likely date to the first half of the 20th Century, most likely pre-war. I believe Dresden started using this mark after 1900. The parrots seem intact although both tail ends have old repairs. The foliage feels rough in places and likely also has touched up and repaired areas, although I can’t see any white break marks.
The bases has museum wax residue as we live in an earthquake prone area. I have not really attempted to clean these as they are so delicate. In estate found condition.
