Vintage Small Gray Bird China Set
Vintage Small Gray Bird China Set
$22.50
What sweet little pieces! They did not originally come together as a set, but they look so cute together I am offering them that way. I also have another separate listing with similar look that is a miniaturized washstand set with a water pitcher and underplate.
This set includes two items -
1 - A demitasse cup and saucer in the "Spring Floral" pattern @1976 Enesco Made in Japan. Both the cup and saucer are decorated with a pair of gray birds (maybe rose breasted grosbeaks?) sitting on pine boughs. The white porcelain background has a high glaze finish. I just thought it was really pretty and would snuggle into a Christmas holiday or winter display on a shelf or mantel so well. This birds are very naturally portrayed on pine boughs with a few pine cones. Great authentic details for any bird lover.
The pieces are in wonderful condition - no chips, cracks, crazing on any surfaces. There are a few bumps in the glaze on the rim of the cup that appear to have been there since manufacture. You don't really notice them, but you can feel them when running your hand across the surface. Dimensions: Saucer - 4 1/2" diameter, 3/4" high, Cup - 2 1/4" high, 3 1/4" wide with handle, 1 3/4" diameter at foot and 2" diameter at top opening
2 - A hand painted small decorative plate, unmarked on the back. The bird has a similar body type to those on the cup and saucer but the coloring is a little more pronounced. The white porcelain background has a high glaze finish. The edge has a fancy lace cut-out design and glittery silver paint. I just thought it was really pretty and would snuggle into a Christmas holiday or winter display on a shelf or mantel so well. This bird is naturally portrayed on a branch with leaves and red berries. Great authentic details for any bird lover.
The piece is in wonderful condition - no chips, cracks, crazing on any surfaces. There are holes on the back for a hanging wire, a cord is currently included. Dimensions: 5 1/4" diameter, 3/4" high.
Sold as a Set of Three (Cup, Saucer and Plate)
