This charming little Herend bird figurine is a mid‑century porcelain parrot from around 1960, standing a petite 2.5 inches tall with a width of 1 inch and a length of 1 inch. The glaze blends soft aqua-green on the body with natural beak and claw tones, and the bird perches on a smooth white tree stump. It’s in near mint condition—bright color, clean glaze, and no chips or hairlines—so it displays beautifully on a shelf, desk, or windowsill. At roughly 65 years old, it’s a true vintage accent that still feels fresh and playful, especially for a minimal, Mid Century Modern look.

Herend is Hungary’s famed porcelain house, founded in 1826 and celebrated for hand‑made, hand‑painted work. Each figurine is formed in fine hard‑paste porcelain, fired multiple times, then finished by artists with small brushes, so no two are exactly alike. Mid‑century pieces like this were produced in smaller runs than today, which makes them fairly scarce on the secondary market, especially in near mint condition. Collectors know Herend for lifelike birds and the iconic fishnet pattern, but even the simpler models carry fine craftsmanship. This tiny parrot is a sweet, authentic example of that tradition from the 1960 era.
