An exquisite model of a kingfisher bird (native to New Zealand and Australia) made by Royal Hereford Fine China International. The finely modelled porcelain bird is mounted on a block of New Zealand greenstone (nephrite Jade). The bird is depicted in flight against a background of porcelain straplike leaves, and a sterling silver tree branch with buds and leaves. The kingfisher?s plumage is highly detailed, down to each feather, and the back and head carry the iridescent colourings of the real bird. This model was produced in a limited edition of 100, I think sometime in the 1970?s or 80?s. It comes with its original certificate, and is model number 86 of the edition of 100. It is in excellent condition. Makers name etc stamped under base, which has felt surface protector. Comes with framed certificate. Figurine measures 11cm x 11cm x 15cm high. (4.1/4 inches x 4.1/4 inches x 6 inches high).
