Large Late 20th Century Mottahedeh Italian Hand Painted Porcelain Parrots - A Pair

Chairish

$495

A beautifully preserved pair of Mottahedeh parrots from the Williamsburg Collection, crafted in Italy in 1998 and finished in vibrant hand-painted detail. These mirrored birds are perched on sculpted rock-form bases and showcase exceptional Italian modeling—crisp feathering, expressive faces, and richly layered color. Williamsburg Provenance This pair originates from the Mottahedeh Williamsburg Collection, a prestigious collaboration with Colonial Williamsburg. The collection draws directly from historic 18th-century decorative arts held in the Colonial Williamsburg archives, translating museum originals into finely crafted, collectible porcelains. Italian-made examples from the 1990s era, like this pair, are sought after for their artistry and high-quality production. ⸻ Both parrots remain in perfect condition, a rarity for pieces of this scale and age.
