These handcrafted ceramic guinea fowl are created in the hilltop village of Lussan in the south of France, where this distinctive art tradition has been practiced for over 50 years. Known for their simple, rounded forms and expressive silhouettes, each bird blends contemporary design with time-honored craftsmanship.
Every piece is individually made and finished by artisans, giving each guinea fowl its own subtle variations in shape, texture, and character. The clean lines and sculptural presence make them equally at home on a mantel, shelf, or tabletop, where they add a quiet, playful charm without overwhelming the space.
Both decorative and collectible, these ceramic birds reflect the spirit of French artisanal design—thoughtful, elegant, and enduring. Whether displayed alone or grouped in varying sizes, they create a warm, curated look that feels personal and artful.
