This vintage pheasant figurine set by Lefton China captures the lifelike beauty of game birds in motion. Each piece is meticulously hand-painted, with detailed feather texturing in naturalistic shades of chestnut, green, and gold. The standing pheasant displays a long sweeping tail, while the smaller bird is shown mid-flight, wings extended in a dynamic pose.

Perfect for collectors of vintage wildlife porcelain, sporting art, or rustic lodge décor, these pieces also complement mid-century display cabinets, farmhouse kitchens, and hunting trophy rooms. Sets like this are becoming increasingly hard to find intact, making them both decorative and collectible.

Lefton China was founded in Chicago by George Zoltan Lefton in 1941, with most production in Japan post-WWII. The company became well-known for its finely detailed hand-painted porcelain giftware and figurines. Game birds like pheasants were popular motifs during the mid-century era, reflecting both American sporting culture and decorative tastes in country lodge aesthetics.
