AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Charming pair of two opalescent glass birds, typical of 1930s Art Deco style, comprising one piece signed "SABINO FRANCE" and a second attributed to Sabino.

Their expressive silhouettes, raised tails, and delicate detailing of their plumage make for a lively ensemble. The glass reveals a superb opalescence: creamy white hues blend with bluish reflections and soft amber tones depending on the light.

The two poses complement each other harmoniously, offering a lovely presence in a display cabinet or on a piece of furniture where the light can highlight the glass reliefs.

Signatures and dimensions:

• Left bird: signed "SABINO FRANCE", height 8.5 cm, length 7 cm.
• Right bird: unsigned, attributed to Sabino, height 9.5 cm, length 8 cm.

Condition:

Good overall presentation. The unsigned piece bears a mark on the right side of the neck, shown in close-up photographs. The signed piece is well preserved.

The photographs are an integral part of the description.

Each bird will be individually protected for careful shipping.
