This striking Long Tailed Shrike Vase from the collections of Franz Porcelain pays distinctive tribute to a noble and beautiful bird of prey. The lovely creature is captured in a moment of repose in a hardwood crook, as both flora and fauna are rendered in exquisite detail in fine Asian porcelain. The Long Tailed Shrike Vase is hand-painted to bring out the unique colors and patterns of the bird's plumage in a celebration of nature's own beauty. It makes a marvelous gift for any lover of the great outdoors.
