**Details that will make you gasp:**
- Graceful life-size swan with arched neck and beautifully sculpted wings that form the vase opening
- Integrated 15-hole flower frog in the back — perfect for arranging lush peonies, hydrangeas, or roses so they spill out like a living bouquet
- Vibrant majolica glaze in creamy ivory with soft celadon-green shading on the feathers and touches of pale pink on beak and feet
- Incredible scale: 12″ long × 11″ tall × 7″ wide — weighs over 10 lbs, pure presence
- Unmarked but classic Bordallo Pinheiro / Portuguese factory style (same lineage as the famous cabbage and animal pieces)

**Condition:** Outstanding. No chips, cracks, hairlines, or repairs. Glaze is glossy and clean, colors fresh. One tiny factory glaze skip on the base edge (born that way, not damage). Displays like perfection.

This is the exact swan you see anchoring entry tables in all the best Southern Living and Veranda features right now. Fill it with fresh blooms for spring/summer or let it stand empty as sculptural art year-round.

Price reflects quality, but I am open to offers.”
