BIG RARE Pair of 32 cm Polychromatic Parrots Eggs and Spinach in Chinese Porcelain XX. Egg And Spinach Glazed – A special version of this kind of glazed decoration is called egg and spinach because it is decorated with white, yellow, green and purple or brown stains. This decoration is made by imitating the sancai lead enamel decoration of the Tang dynasty, which occurred almost exclusively on ceramic instruments and figures, such as camels, horses or a variety of warriors of the time. In this case they are sculptures in Chinese porcelain with green colors on the body, white tongue, yellow on the beak, set on brown trunk and purple crest. Production and manual painting, colors drained with glaze on top, perfect as visible all the details in the photos. The bird symbolizes intelligence, wisdom, lightness, the divine, the soul, freedom, friendship. Because they have wings and the power to fly, in many cultures they are considered messengers between heaven and earth. The parrot is an animal that has as characteristic the fact of repeating the speech of those around it. There are several symbologies around this bird that, depending on the culture, can symbolize the fire, the sun, the unconscious and the truth.
