Description
Exceptional pair of very large vintage Asian export porcelain peacock figures, featuring elegant sculptural forms and finely detailed hand-painted featherwork. This striking matched set includes one peacock shown at rest and one standing with a raised leg perched atop a molded stump, creating a dynamic and balanced presentation when displayed together.
Both figures are richly decorated in soft celadon blue, blush, and ivory tones with hand-outlined feather detailing and gilded accents at the crest and beak. The craftsmanship and scale make these true statement pieces, ideal for a grand shelf, console, mantel, or layered vignette.
The underside retains its original label reading Porcelain blank made in China, hand painted in Macau, a hallmark of mid- to late-20th-century Asian export decorative ceramics produced for the Western market.
