Bird by Gérald Olivier, Switzerland circa 1970
About the Item
Bird sculpture, created by Swiss ceramist Gérald Olivier around 1970.
This sculpture features a streamlined bird form, crafted in ceramic with a mottled blue glaze, creating a natural and fluid gradient effect. It is equipped with a metal beak, providing a subtle contrast with the smoothness of the glaze. The balance between the fluidity of the glaze and the presence of the metal gives the piece a simple and refined aesthetic.
