Designed by Gabriella Crespi in the 1970s, this sculptural pheasant belongs to her whimsical Small Animals series— a celebration of nature interpreted through precious materials and refined forms. Cast using the lost- wax technique in bronze and finished with silver plating, the piece features a delicately blown Murano glass egg nestled within its body. Crespi’s engraved signature graces the base, a subtle testament to her artistry and singular vision.
