Nothing could be more precious than this brooch from the 1980’s save for your own treasured flock, but they aren’t quite as easy to pin down. And although your brood may be flashy they can’t compare with this Princess’ bling as she sports clear stones on her body and green glass twinkles from her eye. And while your babies win in the size department this girl is a close second for she measures an awesome 3+” in length and 2 7/8” in width from crest to wing (and don’t EVEN get me started on her detail….) Birdie can be kept close via a roll clasp on the back and although she’s unmarked it’s easy to see she’s very well made. Another plus is that she’s been in storage her whole 30+ years so she’s in excellent condition despite her age. (And clearly ready to spread her wings!) As you can see she’s friendly, too, having just made friends with a Hutschenreuther Cockatoo vase, available at: www.antiquebeak.com, item #ab6219.
