This is a vintage Hollohaza porcelain seagull figurine from around 1980, done in Art Deco style. The glossy white bird swoops over a low oval base like it is skimming a wave, with soft blue shading on the wings and an orange beak with neat gray striping. It measures about 4 inches tall (10 cm), 6 inches wide (15 cm), and 3 inches long (7.5 cm). Condition is near mint, with bright glaze and no chips, cracks, or repairs, just light shelf wear. At roughly 46 years old, it is a vintage piece that brings a coastal feel to a shelf or desk.

Hollohaza is a historic Hungarian porcelain maker, founded in 1777 in the village of Hollóháza, known for bright white, hard-paste porcelain fired to a glassy finish. Beyond tableware, the factory built a following for modernist animal and bird figures, especially in the 1970s and 1980s, when sculptors favored sleek lines and airbrushed colors like on this gull. Factory stamps on the base help confirm origin and era. Many designs from that era are no longer produced, and examples from 1980 in near mint shape are getting harder to find, which makes this little seabird a display-ready collectible.

This little Hollohaza calf is a hand painted porcelain figurine in near mint shape. It stands just 1 inch tall, 1 inch wide, and 1.5 inches long, finished in a glossy white glaze with soft gray patches. The pose is lively and curious, with gentle blush on the ears and hooves. For its age the surface is clean and bright, with no chips, cracks, or crazing—only the faint shelf rub you’d expect from careful display. Likely made in the late 1960s or 1970s, it’s roughly 50 years old, a pocket‑size piece that fits in your palm.

Holloháza Porcelain Manufactory in Hungary has produced hard‑paste porcelain since 1777, and its mid‑century animal minis are well loved. These were made in small batches, hand glazed and detailed, so no two are exactly alike. Most carry the Hollóháza Hungary 1777 backstamp with the raven logo, a handy authenticity check. The line blends folk charm with clean, modern shapes, which suits farmhouse, cottage, and Scandinavian rooms alike. Tiny examples in this tidy condition aren’t common, especially at just 1 inch by 1 inch by 1.5 inches, so collectors see them as a sweet, affordable slice of Central European design.
