Chalkware Chick with Easter Bonnet

Standing approximately 5 inches tall, this delightful folk art chick is a whimsical celebration of spring. It is hand-cast in chalkware from a rare antique chocolate mold created by Anton Reiche (Dresden, Germany). She is dressed for the season in a charming hand-painted pink bonnet tied with a delicate ribbon.

This chalkware chick captures the nostalgia of yesteryear, inspired by historical art motifs and the quiet beauty of nature. The soft yellow of the chick paired with the warm pink of the bonnet creates a cheerful Easter figure that feels like a well-loved treasure from the past.

The Artistry

Using self-taught methods, Bittersweet House Folk Art captures the character and warmth of historic German chalkware. Each piece is meticulously finished with a signature antiquing process to achieve a soft, aged patina. Every chick is signed, numbered, and dated on the bottom by Kathryn Campbell.
