Decorative ornament (2) - France - Decorative Pheasants

We present this magnificent pair of ornamental pheasants (male and female), an iconic piece of classic European decor. With a naturalistic design and a high-quality metallic finish, these figures are ideal for adding distinction to sideboards, dining tables, or shelves. -Origin: France (attributed by style and manufacture). -Period: Mid-20th century (circa 1950-1960). -Style: Mid-Century / Classical Realism. -Material: Metal with a high-gloss silver plating. -Technique: Detailed casting with precision chiseling of the plumage. -Mark/Hallmark: No visible mark (common in pieces from this period intended for high-end decoration). -Condition: Excellent condition. The pieces maintain their structural integrity and a clean luster, with a light, natural patina that enhances the details of the engraving. -Precise Dimensions *The pieces are a substantial and well-proportioned size: *Male Pheasant (with crest): * Total length: 39.8 cm Height: 15 cm Body width: 6 cm *Female Pheasant: Total length: 39.7 cm Height: 14.5 cm Body width: 5.5 cm *Tail span: Approximately 7.5 cm wide. -Aesthetic Description *This pair stands out for the extraordinary realism in the execution of the textures. The chiseling work clearly distinguishes the different layers of plumage, from the short, dense feathers of the breast to the long, elegant tail feathers. *The male pheasant is distinguished by its characteristic crest, while the female has a softer, more stylized line. Both figures stand firmly on detailed legs, giving them a very stable, sculptural presence. Its silverpated finish reflects light in a sophisticated way, blending perfectly into both vintage environments and modern luxury interiors. Registered shipping with tracking number and/or insurence
