Hand Painted Baby Blue Swallow

Hand Painted Baby Blue Swallow

Swallows are migratory birds that indicate the arrival of spring, which is synonymous with the arrival of the dating season. These birds have a characteristic that differentiates them. They almost always return to the same place where they have previously made their nest and have a single partner along their route! For this reason, they have become a symbol of Love, Family, Loyalty, Home and Loyalty.

It was in 1881 that the first ceramic swallows were produced.
Because they became such an important symbol, their exchange between deeply in love couples quickly became habitual. They are also the meaning of harmony and happiness in the homes where they are hung.

There is also another analogy, which has been going on for several years, that can be made between these magnificent birds and the Portuguese people. People known for being adventurous, who left their home, to set out to discover “new worlds”, but who in the end ended up returning to their home. Like the swallow, despite being a migratory bird, which explores all corners of the world, once a year, always returns to its original nest.
