This striking pair of Italian ceramic rooster and hen figures exemplifies the expressive craftsmanship of mid- to late-20th-century Italian decorative ceramics. Hand-modeled and vividly hand-painted, the figures display confident sculptural modeling, saturated glazes, and finely articulated plumage with iridescent tonal transitions.
The underside bears a handwritten inscription reading “Made in Italy for Queen’s Chest,” indicating production for a specialty decorative arts retailer rather than mass export ware. Substantial in scale and presence, the rooster stands proudly at full height while the hen provides visual balance, creating a classic companion pairing rooted in European folk and country traditions.
Designed as statement décor, the pair functions equally well in grand kitchens, dining rooms, or collected interiors that favor bold continental forms
