This swallow is cast in porcelain and then hand-painted by artisans at an Italian factory that has produced porcelain figurines since the early 1990s. Each swallow’s details are painted by hand, meaning color tones and patterns vary from piece to piece – no two are exactly alike. Dinna selected this swallow for Dims Studio because the Italian porcelain tradition combines durability with finesse in the details.
Care and maintenance
Wipe the porcelain with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid dishwashers and harsh cleaning agents, as hand-painted surfaces can wear off with rough treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between hand-painted and printed porcelain?
Hand-painted porcelain has its colors and patterns applied manually by artisans, resulting in variations and a unique expression. Printed porcelain uses standardized patterns so all figurines look identical. Hand-painted porcelain requires more time and skill, but the result is more vibrant.
Can I wash the porcelain figurine in the dishwasher?
No, hand-painted porcelain should not be washed in the dishwasher. High heat and strong detergents can damage the paint. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth to dust it off.
Where is the best place to display a 22 cm tall porcelain figurine?
A 22 cm figurine works well on shelves at eye level, on windowsills, or on side tables. Place it together with other figurines or objects of varying heights to create depth.
Is a hand-painted porcelain figurine a good confirmation gift?
Yes, a hand-painted Italian porcelain figurine is a personal and lasting gift for confirmation, especially if the recipient is interested in birds, nature, or collects porcelain. It can be cherished for generations with proper care.
Why does the pattern vary from swallow to swallow?
Because each swallow is hand-painted by an artisan. Brush strokes, color mixing, and timing affect the final result, so no two figurines are identical. This is a hallmark of genuine craftsmanship.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
