    I've never seen porcelain from Brazil before, but these two old birds appear to be from there. They are 7 inches tall x 4.5 inches wide. any info appreciated!

      These are just adorable, I love them! Is this the decor known as majolica? Are the white spots flashes from the photos or chips?

      thanks katherinescollections. the white spots are reflections, not chips. there's one small chip on the underside of one. they don't feel much like majolica to me, but i'm certainly no expert and they are definitely old.

      I must show my Brazilian porcelain hare. He is extraordinary and strange!
      These are so sweet.
