SALE 2 Parakeets - vintage Japan Birds Wall Pocket - U.S.A. POSTAGE INCLUDED!

Pottery : Vintage : Wall Pocket : Japan : Bird

 

If you like parakeets, here is just the most fantastic wall pocket -- two very realistic and dapper looking 'keets sit cheerfully on their perch. Your first impression is a bird figurine - then you realize this is a stunning wallpocket.

These birds are the size of real ones, approximately 6 inches long. You can easily imagine them twittering and chattering the way real parakeets do, as they eye you from their branch perch.

This piece came from an estate collection, from which we were fortunate to obtain several great MADE IN JAPAN wallpockets -- offered here for collectors. We were especially impressed with their highly dimensional sculpturing and depth of the pocket.

This one is pottery (rather than "porcelain") glazed with soft blendings of green, yellow, cream and maroon hues. The only kitsch is gold trim on the birds' beaks and claws, which although "decorative" instead of "realistic" is not overpowering. It is impressed MADE IN JAPAN on the back (please see closeup photo).

This wall pocket is in wonderful condition with NO cracks, chips, flakes or hairlines. There is some very minor staining inside from use, which we have not attempted to remove.

If you collect bird wall pockets -- here is a good one and we also recommend it for anyone who enjoys parakeet related items!
