A breathtaking pair of vintage Mexican feather artworks, each featuring a brilliantly detailed exotic bird made entirely from real feathers. These handmade pieces showcase the exquisite artistry of mid-century Mexico, where artisans layered dyed feathers over hand-painted backdrops to create lifelike tropical birds bursting with color and personality.
Each work is signed “Mexico” and displayed under glass within intricately hand-carved wooden frames. The craftsmanship of both the art and frame reflects the artistry of 1950s–60s Mexican folk design — natural, expressive, and full of charm.
The vibrant red-crested bird exudes fiery energy and tropical flair, while the cream-feathered bird radiates quiet grace. Together, they bring a lush, exotic touch to any room — perfect for an Eclectic Whimsy wall gallery, boho home, or vintage-inspired decor.
