Ceramic Swallows

These long-tailed, slender black swallows exude a timeless elegance. Their presence in your window will be a silent but poignant image that spring is about to bloom and summer is ready to make its entrance. These swallows, also known as oronetas, have been an emblem of Spanish culture, particularly in the eastern part of Spain, for decades.

What makes these ceramic swallows even more special is their history. Created from the original 1921 moulds from the Valencian ceramics factory of artist G. Martínez, today it is his own children who continue the tradition, sending these unique pieces to craft lovers all over the world. Each swallow is a ceramic masterpiece, with meticulous attention to detail and an elegant black finish that enhances its beauty.

Placing these black ceramic swallows in your living room is more than just decoration, it is a connection to the rich cultural tradition of Spain and a celebration of the natural beauty that surrounds us. Every day, you will be reminded of the long sunny afternoons that are nearby, as these swallows gracefully perch on your window.
