Armand Petersen – Large Macaw Bird in Stoneware, Bing & Grøndahl, 1930s
€3,500
Rare large and beautifully sculpted stoneware figure of an Macaw (ara parrot), designed by Armand Petersen (1891–1969) and produced by Bing & Grøndahl in the 1930s.
Executed in stoneware with a richly nuanced matte to softly satin-glazed surface, the sculpture displays warm tones of brown, cream, and amber that enhance the organic quality of the form. Petersen’s distinctive ability to balance naturalistic observation with a refined, sculptural simplicity is evident throughout.
The parrot is depicted perched calmly on a cubic base, lending the piece a strong architectural presence and a timeless elegance that complements both classic and contemporary interiors.
The base bears the Bing & Grøndahl mark as well as the artist’s monogram.
Presented in very good condition.
About Armand Petersen
Armand Petersen (1891–1969) was a Swiss-born sculptor who later became a French citizen and worked within the international art scene, primarily based in Paris. He is best known for his animal sculptures, which combine keen naturalistic observation with a stylized and sculptural clarity of form. Originally trained as an engraver, Petersen transitioned into sculpture, where his work gained wide recognition. His collaboration with Bing & Grøndahl led to the production of several of his designs in porcelain and stoneware, further cementing his legacy among collectors.
