Cute little silvertone owl on a branch with 2 turquoise eyes, which I believe are real turquoise that have been highly polished. The back is marked "BY BELL", which is all you can see of the mark. I know there is a picture of a bell above it, since I have seen this mark before, and it's very possible that above that was written sterling, but you cannot see it due to the clasp, so I am not selling it as such. This owl has nice detail cut into him and is simply cute. Safety catch is in good working condition. Measures 1 1/8".

Safety clasp on pin and necklace are both in good working condition.

He's such a cutie! This bird is made up of some sort of lightly speckled coral colored stone or rock. The stones are set into a bright goldtone setting. The tail of the bird is on a spring and "trembles" while wearing it. There is one tiny white speckle on the coral colored stone that serves as the bird's head. I can't physically feel the flaw, so it may just be a larger speckle of what the stone is composed of, but I feel the need to point it out. (It's about in the area of where you might expect an eye.) Stones are glued in, although it has the appearance of being bezeled set. Safety catch is in good working condition. Measures 1 1/2" x 1 1/4". BACK VIEW
This bracelet is goldtone with 8 white-washed (enamel paint?) charms and 7 bright colored beads hanging from it. 2 charms are imitation coins. 2 charms are urns with large orange plastic cabachons on them. 2 charms are griffins or winged dragons, one of which has an orange and a yellow plastic bead on it. 1 charm is a Sinbad looking character with an orange plastic bead on his chest. 1 charm is the sphinx head, but his body is broken off. The plastic beads are in blue, white aqua and orange, some of which have some scuffing to the color on the edges. I believe there may be one charm and/or one bead missing, but since there are so many charms on the bracelet, you could rearrange them to fill in any gaps. The spring ring clasp is in good working condition. Measures 8" long. Middle urn charm measures 1 1/2" long to give you an idea of the size of the charms. Nicely made charms, just not all there.

The cockatoo feathers are in pale frosted green and cream enamel and their beaks are black enamel. The leaves are also frosted green enamel. There is some enamel wear as shown in the picture, but is still a beautiful piece. The pin appears to be gold wash over silvertone metal. Again, there is some wear to the gold wash, but does not detract from the overall beauty of the pin. Measures 2" by 2". $32.50.
