The pinks range across the set, from soft blush and pale rose to deep fuchsia and cranberry. Two of the smaller birds carry swirling ribbons of white and magenta through their bodies, while the tallest figure glows in a saturated, milky pink. Another wears a mottled, speckled finish with a dramatic winglike flare, and the compact, curled figure rests on a clear glass foot. Each bird is anchored by a thick, clear glass base that lets light travel through the form.

Together the group makes a lively, sculptural vignette on a console, sideboard, mantel, bookshelf, or glass-topped coffee table, and the birds can also be displayed separately for a staggered effect. The set brings playful color to Hollywood Regency, Mid-Century Modern, Coastal, Maximalist, and Eclectic interiors, and pairs well with brass, lacquer, marble, and tropical prints. To care for them, dust with a soft dry cloth and clean gently with a lightly dampened cloth, avoiding abrasive pads and harsh chemicals. Handle each piece by the body and base, not the neck or beak. The largest figure measures 5.25 inches wide, 3.25 inches deep, and 13.25 inches high.

Presented in very good condition, the flamingos retain vibrant original color and a smooth, glossy finish. Minor surface scratches and slight wear at the base are consistent with age and handling. There are no visible chips, cracks, or repairs, and the figures are structurally sound. Made in Italy, the set reflects the Murano glassmaking tradition. Please review the photographs closely, as they form part of the condition report. Bring home this vibrant flock and inquire today to make it yours. See less
