China, Late 19th Century

This fine pair of Chinese Export Porcelain Green Sancai Glazed Parrots, crafted in the late 19th century, beautifully reflects the refined artistry and exceptional workmanship of traditional Chinese ceramics. Each parrot is elegantly perched, meticulously modeled with intricate, organic detailing that captures their lifelike grace and natural charm. The subtle green Sancai glaze, celebrated for its rich and enamel-like glaze, enhances the flowing contours and textures of these exquisite figures.

The pair features one larger parrot standing 8.75 inches tall, 3.25 inches wide, and 2.75 inches deep, alongside a slightly smaller parrot measuring 8.5 inches tall, 3 inches wide, and 2.5 inches deep. Both are gracefully set upon openwork bases that provide both stability and visual depth, seamlessly blending form and function. Notably, one of the parrots retains its original wax Chinese export seal on the head—a rare and valuable attribute that authenticates its provenance and elevates its historical value.

Timeless elegance and cultural significance, this pair offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of China’s rich artistic heritage. Ideal for collectors and interior designers alike, these porcelain parrots will add sophistication, historical depth, and artistic refinement to any interior. See less
