Shimmery Hummingbird Jewelry to Love

Welcome back!

My colorful hummingbird jewelry is iridescent and as delicate as the ruby throated beauties you may see buzzing through your back yard. I created them in fine pewter and my talented New England painters decorate them in these lovely colors.

I’ve seen the ones in her yard, lucky girl. They fly so close that I’ve been startled by the buzzing of their wings after they stop off at her bright red nectar feeder before zooming back to the trees at the periphery.

So I do my best. I may not have the real thing here-unless, of course, you count the hummingbird jewelry in my studio waiting to zoom off to your place!

Wear your African Grey as a Pendant

Bird lovers have the option of wearing their birds now, all the time. I’m not talking about on your shoulder (I’ve heard that’s not a good idea anyway) but as a realistic sterling silver African Grey pendant.

I put my heart into this design, decorating it with detailed feathers and an expression that I still love. The pet birds I’ve personally met had a wonderful personality and were quite bonded with their owners.

If you have a bird yourself, you can always hint around to your significant other (the holidays will be here before you know it) for a Magic Zoo bird design. You are also cordially invited to prowl around on my site yourself. I have lots of bird jewelry designs besides the rather handsome silver African Grey pendant you see here!
