Cockatoo parrot

A striking interior porcelain figurine of a Cockatoo parrot was crafted at the Carl Ens factory, renowned for its animal figurines.
Due to the elongated, contrasting stand in the form of a branch against the bird's painted body, the parrot's figure looks incredibly impressive. The multicolored painting, which captures the natural coloration of these magnificent tropical birds, impresses with its richness and depth of hues.

The iridescence of the colors emphasizes the exquisite detailing of the bird's plumage, creating an illusion of complete realism. The three-dimensional modeling of the feathers is complemented by multi-layered detailing. As a result, each feather stands out and plays in the light, naturally shaping the bird's body position, the curve of its back, and its wings.

The author of the figurine particularly excelled in conveying the parrot's head with its characteristic powerful beak and its tenacious, strong claws. The parrot figurine is crafted almost to real size, full of life and dynamism, as if the bird is about to take flight, spreading its powerful wings. Age: 1920s, mark: Karl Es, size: cm H 28.5, material: porcelain, condition: good preservation, professional restoration of the golden feather.
