Personally I am not a big fan of figurines and yet lately I have been finding many vintage pieces that can easily pass for decorative or sculptural art. Often these porcelain or ceramic pieces are quite affordable and if your a tag sale junkie like me you can find great pieces for as little as five to ten dollars.
The pieces above are all animal themed and made in Hungry by Zsolnay. Because of their abstract quality and their iridescent metallic like colors, I think these will soon gain a renewed interest from both collectors and the general public.
In case your not up on the latest in color and design trends, shiny and organic are hot and in. Either way, one or two of these can be great accent pieces without making your home feel like”grama is havin a chachkie party.”
I am more into Swarovski but I may have to rethink about collecting some Zsolnay. The ones you showed are absolutely beautiful. Certainly not “grandma” type pieces.
