Pair of Showa-Era Clay Chickens — Rooster & Hen, 1950s (SKU: 25M-330)

Farmyard harmony cast in timeless metal

These plump, endearing poultry figures capture the moment before sunrise—the rooster poised to crow, the hen calmly watching the world awaken. Cast in solid clay during mid-century Japan, each bird displays finely chased tail feathers and softly burnished bellies, finished in a warm russet patina that recalls autumn fields.

Displayed on a shelf or dining table, they celebrate engimono (auspicious motifs): the rooster for protection, the hen for domestic prosperity. Together they offer an elegant nod to countryside life while complementing both rustic and modern interiors.
