These chicks have chubby, silver bodies, and little gold feet— each chick has a cabochon ruby eye, and they are both covered with small, pave-set, rose cut diamonds that read like sparkling feathers! Our chicks appear captivated by the gold snack that sits between them on their gold wishbone frame, which has a long, elegant, realistic form. This is a rare figural subject, and it is beautifully executed. The personality of the little chickens really shines through! This brooch closes with a locking c-catch.
