Hoopin’ for an exotic bird pin with a lot of class and a bit of flash? Then look no further than this silver tone Hoopoe brooch adorned with a colorful, enameled crest, multicolored rhinestones on body and breast, and lots of detailing throughout. Stunning not only in appearance but also in size: he measures a whopping 3 5/8” from crest to tail and is 1 5/8” wide at the beak area. Turn him over and you’ll find a roll clasp for his protection, and although he’s unmarked it’s obvious he’s well made and in good condition. He has to be to keep up with his Roselane Cockatoo friend who’s currently residing at www.antiquebeak.com.
