The mythical bird, symbol of gentleness and wisdom, holds a ribbon in its beak. It seems to be flying in the cloudy sky, its long tails forming pleasant curves. Yellow and orange, the animal contrasts with the deep blue night symbolizing the skies. Friezes of geometric patterns adorn the neck, on a sky blue background, a hue also found on the base.
This important vase with a poetic and aerial theme will bring an exotic touch to your decoration.
