Vintage Mid-Century Black Ceramic Flying Swallows – Wall Plaques (Pair)

A classic touch of mid-century interior style — this pair of glossy black ceramic swallows were designed to “fly” across the wall in formation, a look that became hugely popular in European homes during the 1950s–1970s and remains a favourite with modern retro interiors today.

Beautifully moulded with detailed feathers and finished in a deep piano-black glaze, these birds add movement and sculptural interest without overwhelming a space. Hang them above a doorway, along a hallway, or as part of a gallery wall for that effortless atomic-era feel.

Original wall mounting holes to the reverse make them ready to install and enjoy.
