A decorative group of three late 20th century Andrea by Sadek porcelain bird figurines, modeled in naturalistic poses and finished in hand-applied polychrome enamels. The lot includes a cockatiel perched on a bark-textured stump with foliage and berry accents; a chestnut-backed chickadee shown alighting amid holly leaves and red berries on a snow-form base; and a second perching songbird presented on a vertical branch entwined with grapevine and dark fruit, with autumnal leaves in relief. Each figure is executed with crisp feather modeling, layered tonal shading, and sculptural basework intended for tabletop display. Markings visible in the images include printed “Cockatiel by Andrea” and a “Chickadee by Andrea” example dated 1985; one base also bears a “BOEHM Porcelain, made in England” mark with species notation “Chestnut Backed Chickadee (Parus rufescens).” Size: 4 x 4 x 10" & small
