Songbird Keepsake

Delicate and full of personality, Songbird Keepsake by Jesús Olivas Quintana captures a moment of stillness in nature. A finely detailed bird perches on a branch, its feathers rendered in fine sgraffito lines and hand-painted in earthy terracotta, black, and cream. Encircled by geometric borders, the scene radiates from the rounded face of this petite, perfectly proportioned vessel.
Though small in size, the craftsmanship is anything but simple. The texture, the carving, and the intricate use of space make this a standout piece for collectors who appreciate fine detail. Whether placed on a shelf, desk, or as part of a larger ceramic grouping, this piece brings quiet warmth and elegance.
