2006 Fitz and Floyd Guild Collection Jeweled Flamingo Figurine with Box
This vibrant Flamingo figurine is a prestigious example of the high-detail artistry found in the Fitz and Floyd Guild Collection. Produced in 2006, this jeweled miniature is a masterwork of mixed-media craftsmanship featuring a heavy metal foundation finished in hand-applied enamels. The flamingo is rendered in a sophisticated palette of sunset reds and tropical pinks, accented by a dazzling trail of pink handset crystals along the neck and wing. Perched gracefully on one leg atop a gnarled golden branch and a deep teal water-inspired base, this piece captures the "Jeweled Menagerie" aesthetic prized by collectors. This item comes complete with its original satin-lined presentation box and documentation, making it a spectacular choice for a luxury gift or a sophisticated vanity accent.
Historical Significance
The Fitz and Floyd Guild line represents the company’s premier tier of artisan-produced collectibles. Since its founding in Dallas in 1960, Fitz and Floyd has been a leader in American decorative design, but the Guild Collection moved the brand into the elite world of luxury metalwork and fine enameling. These pieces were designed to rival high-end European "objects of virtue" and are noted for their naturalist accuracy blended with a whimsical, jeweled finish. The Flamingo, model 34/157, is a standout find from the 2006 series, reflecting a period when the brand utilized labor-intensive hand-finishing for its most exclusive retail partners.

Designer Note
For the 2026 interior, this Flamingo is a perfect fit for the Hollywood Regency or Coastal Glamour aesthetic. Its vertical 3.75-inch height makes it a dramatic shelf-filler that provides a pop of tropical color without taking up significant real estate. Designers often use these jeweled bird figures as sophisticated "smalls" to add a layer of texture to a bar cart, a bedside table, or a curated curiosity cabinet. The rich red and pink tones allow it to pair beautifully with gold accents, tropical greenery, or crisp white surfaces.
Authenticity and Collector Value
What sets this piece apart for the serious collector is its "untouched" status. In the secondary market, the value of Fitz and Floyd Guild pieces is heavily dependent on the presence of the original box and the integrity of the crystals. As a retired model (34/157) in its original satin-lined housing, this Fkamingo offers clear provenance and long-term investment value.
Offering a rare blend of historical integrity and breathtaking hand-chased detail, this Fitz and Floyd Guild Flamingo is a fragment of 21st-century heritage art. It represents a rare opportunity to own a retired 2006 model in its most pristine, boxed state. This figurine is intended to be used, displayed, and passed down as a cornerstone of a fine menagerie collection.
