c. 1950s-1960s; Edward Marshall Boehm, Inc. – Trenton, NJ Charming hand-painted porcelain sculpture of a baby wood thrush by Edward Marshall Boehm, featuring the fledgling perched on a sculpted green mound while clutching a butterfly in its beak. The figure displays Boehm’s signature attention to lifelike form and color-the bird’s russet plumage and soft cream breast rendered with remarkable delicacy and realism. This model, marked "Boehm – Made in U.S.A." and numbered 444, reflects the company’s postwar dedication to celebrating native wildlife through fine porcelain artistry. Founded in 1950 by Edward Marshall Boehm, the Trenton-based studio quickly earned international acclaim for its scientifically accurate and artistically refined wildlife sculptures, many of which reside in major museum and diplomatic collections.
Excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs.
