Vintage Viking Glass Avocado Green Heron Figurine | Made in USA
Bring home a piece of Mid-Century Modern glass with this stunning Viking Glass wading bird.
This is the classic Viking Heron / Egret / Crane figurine that collectors love — all long neck, folded wings, and that elegant, long beak pose. The solid glass body sits on Viking’s signature round disc foot and stands about 11-14" tall, so it has real presence on a mantel, bookshelf, or entry table.
Details:
- Maker: Viking Glass Company, New Martinsville, West Virginia. Made in USA
- Authenticity Mark: Original blue foil label with the Viking ship logo and "VIKING" still on the base. Viking used paper/foil labels instead of embossing, so finding one intact is a nice bonus
- Color: Avocado Green, also called Evergreen. One of Viking’s most popular MCM colors introduced in the 1960s. It reads bright lime in photos but is the true avocado tone in person
- Era: 1960s to early 1980s. Viking operated from 1944-1986 and closed in 1987. Their animal figurines were a huge part of their line
- Material: Solid glass with a smooth polished finish
Condition:
Vintage and in great shape. No chips or fleas, including on the beak — which is the most common damage point on these birds. Keeping the original foil label adds to its collectibility and value.
Perfect for MCM collectors, Viking Glass fans, or anyone who wants a sculptural pop of avocado green. This bird is display-ready and ships carefully packed.
