Container/Box in the Shape of an Anthropomorphised Chick

About the Item

Container in the shape of an anthropomorphised chick. Dressed in colourful clothes, the piece has a cartoonish design with a rounded, expressive body. The chick has its beak open, as if it were singing or talking, conveying a sense of animation and joy. The figure is wearing a red cap with a blue tassel, blue trousers fastened with black braces and sturdy black shoes. The chick's wings are partially open, and the body shows an aged finish, with signs of wear on the paintwork, which suggests that it may be an antique or handmade piece. Defects.
