Archaeological collection formed from the 1950s by successive generations of the family, through acquisitions in European galleries and auction houses.

They have a hemispherical base, which serves as a pedestal for the figure of a bird—probably mythical—with a crest, a slightly curved beak, and a long, raised tail.
