This charming little bird figurine is a Herend Grey Little Bird made from fine porcelain and handpainted in Hungary, dating back to around 1970. At just about 3 inches high, 1.5 inches wide, and 3 inches long, it may be small, but it really stands out because of its careful details and beautifully painted feathers. The gentle shades of grey, yellow, and brown give it a lifelike look, making it a sweet addition to any shelf or display case. Being more than 50 years old, this piece is truly vintage and has been well looked after, sitting in near-mint condition with hardly any signs of wear. Pieces like this can be considered rare, especially if you find them in such great shape.
Herend is a famous porcelain manufacturer from Hungary that’s been making high-quality ceramics since the early 1800s. They’re well known around the globe for their luxury handpainted figurines, dishes, and ornamental pieces. The brand often features animals, birds, and flowers, all brought to life with intricate brushstrokes and vibrant colors. Each item is crafted and painted by skilled artisans who spend years perfecting their craft. The figurines aren’t mass produced—you can spot a real Herend piece by its unique, lifelike details and sometimes a small blue shield mark stamped on the bottom. Collectors love Herend for its blend of old-world charm and sheer craftsmanship. Vintage pieces like this bird, especially from the 1970s, stand out as treasures because they show off the peak period of Herend artistry. Owning one is a little slice of European history right in your home.
