worked recumbent with its crowned head turned sharply backwards, its beak grasping a leafy millet spray, finely detailed with plumage, the stone of an even white tone with russet patches
Condition
The figure is in good condition. There are minute nicks to the millet spray and the tips of the tail, with tiny sections possibly very lightly polished to conceal an earlier nick. The catalogue illustration is a tinge redder than the actual colour of the stone.
