Vintage White Ceramic Pie Bird with Detailed Wings & Black Eyes

White glaze, defined wings and a pair of painted black eyes.

This mid century ceramic pie bird gives a traditional baking tool a sculptural form. Its white finish draws attention to the wing details, while the black eyes add definition to the face.

Originally designed to release steam from beneath a pie crust, the hollow bird combines practical purpose with decorative detail. At 9.5 cm tall, it is a compact reminder of everyday home baking.

Display it beside coloured mixing bowls or against a darker kitchen shelf, where the white glaze can stand out. It also works among contemporary tableware, adding an animal silhouette to an otherwise simple arrangement.

A small piece of vintage kitchenalia and a thoughtful gift for someone who enjoys baking or bird shaped ceramics.
