Cicely Lushington

Cicely Lushington was an English ornithologist, author and artist known for her studies of birds. Born in Ceylon in 1903, she wrote Bird Life in Ceylon and created detailed bird illustrations, watercolours and studio pottery bird models. Her ceramic pieces often show British and exotic birds such as wrens, blue tits, partridges and pheasants, usually with careful attention to species and form. Cicely Lushington pieces are a good fit for bird lovers, natural history collectors and those looking for unusual British studio pottery with a clear wildlife connection.
