This exquisite porcelain bird figurine is an original Rosenthal "Vink" (Buchfink / Finch), designed by the renowned German artist and sculptor Fritz Heidenreich (1895–1966). The figurine was produced by the prestigious Kunstabteilung (Art Department) of the Rosenthal factory in Selb, Germany. Quality and Identification.

Manufacturing: The figurine is completely hand-painted (Handgemalt), as evidenced by the subtle color transitions on the breast, wings, and head of the bird.
