Description from the seller

A beautiful pair of cast brass pheasants – Rooster and hen – Mid-20th century

A decorative and expressive pair of pheasants, crafted in cast brass with a warm, partly patinated finish. The pair consists of a pheasant rooster with a striking crest and long tail feathers, and a corresponding hen. Both birds are depicted naturalistically in a dynamic, walking pose with finely chiselled feather detailing.

The design is in keeping with the classical European tradition of table centerpieces and hunting decor. Very suitable as a decorative pair on a sideboard, fireplace mantel, or festive table setting.
