Gien Oiseaux de ParadisExotic Birds is a true work of art for the table, an iconic piece of history and royalty. Its motif was originally created in 1738 and retouched with vivid new color in 1865 by Gien. A legacy of French earthenware and design, its graceful scalloped shape, hand painted blue filet and beloved birds are ideal for dressing an exquisite table, or simply embellishing the everyday.
