This rare Chelsea porcelain figurine, dating between 1758 and 1770, depicts a charming young boy holding a bird to his ear while carrying a wooden birdcage. Dressed in a vibrantly hand-painted floral jacket, yellow breeches, and a black tricorn hat, he stands beside a rustic birdhouse atop a decorative gilt-scroll base adorned with applied flowers. A fine example of Chelsea’s Rococo elegance, this piece showcases the intricate modeling and rich enamels characteristic of the period.
