Swallows are a very characteristic element from Bordallo, which became a true Portuguese symbol.
We can found them in many houses, in Portugal and in many other countries where Portuguese people live.
In 1896, Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro registers the patent of its ceramic swallows probably realizing that it could become a true Portuguese symbol.
He wasn’t wrong, the artist’s flights of swallows started inhabiting houses, in Portugal and in several countries where Portuguese people lived (easy to identify by the swallows).
