Here’s a wonderful Norman Brumm from a well-loved (and well cared for) private collection. This gorgeous vintage enamel on copper sculpture features a delightful bird, beautiful violets, and a precious little butterfly! The Brown Song Sparrow is enameled in warm brown tones of coffee and copper with contrasting white head feathers. This little bird is perched over a spray of violets with lush green leaves and a visiting tiny butterfly. As in all of Brumm’s sculptures, the overall effect captures a unique moment in a harmonious vignette. Brumm’s technique of multiple high-firings caused the glass enamel to take on a deep, gem-like quality. Each of the “Brumm Birds” is one of a kind, and was created with superb attention to detail. The little bird, vibrant leaves, delicate blossoms, and charming butterfly are all realized in Brumm’s instantly recognizable enamel over sculpted copper style. The entire piece is supported by a hand carved burl wood (lead weighted) stand. The craftsmanship is simply extraordinary. This sculpture is in excellent vintage condition! The enamel glows, the colors are rich and vibrant, and the wood base is smooth and polished. The piece is well marked at the bottom of the stand (as well as the underside of the little bird). Measurements – Weight: 15oz, Height: 7″, Depth: 5.5″, Width: 6. Note: I’ve tried to capture the colors and detail as well as possible, but photos just don’t do these pieces justice. Please message me if you’d like additional pictures or information. For over thirty-five years, the artwork of Norman Howard Brumm has delighted and inspired people around the world. The studio’s glass enamel production studio is among the oldest and most respected studios in the world. Norman Brumm’s distinctive birds and wildflowers have earned him countless honors and praise for his attention to detail. Each piece is handmade, signed and totally unique. Multiple high-firings make the glass enamel glow like precious gems. These beautiful sculptures are becoming rarer and more collectible since Norman Brumm passed away in 2008. Brumm’s jewel-like glass enamel on copper sculpture and collector’s plates are in the collections of Royalty, Presidents, Heads-of-State and collectors from around the world. In addition to their beauty, they lower our consumer footprint by preventing energy and other resources from being used to create new items. The production of new items requires significant resources, such as water, energy, and raw materials.

Here’s a wonderful Norman Brumm bird and flower sculpture from a well-loved (and well cared for) private collection. Brumm’s gorgeous vintage enamel on copper sculpture features a delightful wren in deep rich browns ranging from black to espresso to deep copper. This little bird is perched near a spray of Marsh Marigolds realized in vibrant yellow and beautiful emerald-green leaves. The colors are beautifully striking, and as in all of Brumm’s sculptures, the overall effect captures a unique moment in a harmonious vignette. Brumm’s technique of multiple high-firings caused the glass enamel to take on a deep, gem-like quality. Each of the “Brumm Birds” is one of a kind, and was created with superb attention to detail. The little bird, vibrant leaves, and bright blossoms are all created in Brumm’s instantly recognizable enamel over sculpted copper style. The entire piece is supported by a hand carved driftwood (lead weighted) stand. The craftsmanship is simply extraordinary. This sculpture is in excellent vintage condition with the original tag! The enamel glows, the colors are rich and vibrant, and the wood base is in great condition. The piece is well marked at the bottom of the stand.
