Description: FREE SHIPPING This intriguing and rare figurine was designed by Hungarian immigrant Geza deVegh. Other examples are marked PHOENIX, a line that was marketed by Mary Ryan during the 1930s from her New York sales room. This example, however, is incised FCC and H107. The first letters must stand for something like F------- China Company, although I have not definitively identified the maker. The figure and his bird are modeled to have a great cubist or WPA art deco look. Glazed in several glossy colors. Outstanding piece, for the discriminating collector. No nicks, chips, hairlines, or repairs. If you have not heard of either Phoenix or Geza deVegh, join the club. Fortunately, you can read about his illustrious career in an article I just published in the Winter 2021 issue of the JOURNAL of the American Art Pottery Association.
