A treasure from the Orient that’s actually two birds in one, for while the visage is that of a Peacock, the feathers are all Kingfisher.  Looking like silk or paint the electric blue areas are actually Kingfisher feathers, a crafting technique the Chinese have been perfecting for 2,000 years. While I do not believe this piece is quite THAT old, the practice was discontinued in the 1940’s so we know it’s at least 60 years old.  A close look will reveal superb detail and the fa....]]> http://www.beakchic.com/product/elegant-sterling-silver-bird-of-pardise-pin $58.00

He’s not tall but he IS dark and handsome......... Enter this great Crow or Raven charm / pendant from Germany with blue eyes and a shiny sheen.

Well made (as are most things German) this vintage Heron pin has to be seen to be appreciated. At first glance it appears to be a solitary Heron or Crane out for a stroll, but a closer look reveals it’s also a striking piece of design and craftsmanship with gleaming stones amid its intricate feathers and a facial mien that’s simple yet expressive. It is made of silver toned metal that appears to be silver but isn’t (had me fooled until I tested it) and is pressed outward from the back giving the....]]> http://www.beakchic.com/product/art-deco-cockatoo-brooch-from-scotland $38.00

A lonely little Quetzal from Mexico who hopes to find a shoulder to lean on soon.
