Large
Cockatiel A tall, slender fellow, alert and watchful. Very
realistic, I keep expecting him to whistle. 2_dimensional sterling silver,
with a hidden loop on the back for attaching a chain or a ring for
hanging. Too long to be a bracelet charm, but he'd be beautiful on
earrings, and would make an excellent necklace centerpiece. He's 1 7/8"
tall, and 7/16" wide. |
$25.00 |

Small Macaw in
Oval
Tiny, dainty parrot on a branch across an oval ring. He'd make
excellent lightweight earrings or a bracelet charm, or a wonderful set.
The back of this charm is flat with no detail. 1 inch tall, 1/2 inch wide.

Macaw On a
Branch
A heavy bird with a tail in questionable condition. He might
just be too young to take good care of it yet. He's 1 inch tall, 1/2 inch
wide. |
$25.00 |

Macaw in a
Ring
This is an elegant 3-dimensional pendant. The details on this
guy are incredible! The bird's wings are raised and spread apart at the
shoulders, as if he's stretching himself. He's perched on a bamboo hoop.
His beak is even open! He's too long and slender to wear on a
bracelet--his tail would get wrecked. But he'd make elegant earrings, or
an excellent necklace pendant. He is 1 7/8" long, 3/4" wide. |
$25.00 |

Small
cockatiel
This is the all-purpose cockatiel. He's small enough to
be used on any type of jewelry, but still instantly recognizable as a
cockatiel. He's got that crest way up in the air as if he just saw
something interesting. 1 inch tall, 1/4" wide. |
$25.00 |

Large 2-D
Macaw
This fellow comes in 3 sizes, large, medium and small. You
can see them all compared together by clicking on the small picture to the
left of this description. He's quite detailed on the front, but is only
2-dimensional. I'm guessing he's a Blue & Gold, from the face. The
biggest of these guys is too large to wear on a bracelet, but would make a
great pendant. He only comes facing to the left, as shown. He's 2 inches
tall, 3/4 inch wide. |
$25.00 |
 |
Medium 2-D
Macaw
The medium-sized 2_dimensional macaw is a very similar design
with slightly more feather detail than the large and small versions. He
only comes facing to the right, as shown. He's 1 3/8" tall, 3/8" wide. |
$25.00 |
 |
Small 2-D
Macaw
These guys come facing in either direction, so they
naturally make great earrings. They can also be purchased separately as
bracelet or necklace charms. They are 7/8" tall, 5/16" wide. |

pair

African
Grey
This guy has been identfied by various viewers as an African
Grey, and an Amazon. So I think he might be used to represent either one.
He does have a short tail, in any case. He's 3/4" tall, 3/8" wide. |
$25.00 |

Bird on a
Ladder
The classic budgie or budgerigar or dime-store parakeet.
Whatever you call him, we have one here, climbing on his favorite toy
ladder. Some folks have suggested that this could also be a conure on a
ladder. I agree. Whatever you think he is, he's perfect for any type of
jewelry. He is 3/4" tall, 1/4" wide. |

A Bird In The
Hand...
A just-for-fun charm. It's actually a cardinal in the palm
of a disembodied hand, but hey--it has a crest, why can't it be a
cockatiel? What is a bird in the hand worth to you? Around here it usually
means petting the bird and getting no work done! This guy is 5/8" long,
fingertips to tail tip, 3/8" wide. |
$25.00 |
 |
Hyacinth Macaw
Coin
Not actually a coin, but a sterling silver disk with a
2-dimensional profile of a hyacinth macaw, recognizable by that massive,
curved beak. The disk is flat on the back. This would look great any way
you choose to wear it. Circular, 3/4" across. |
$30.00 |
 |
3-D
Macaw A small macaw or conure charm with a big attitude. His head
is turned as if to say "Look at me!", as he sits on his tiny perch. He's
7/8" tall, 3/8" wide. |

Quaker or
Conure I've never seen a bird with pudgy cheeks before, but this
guy has them! He's a cutie though-- several people have told me they
believe he is supposed to be a Quaker or Monk Parrot. I think he looks
more like a cherry-headed conure. But he's silver--who can tell? In any
case, this is a great, heavy charm with a lot of character. You might see
this charm elsewhere, done up in grey pewter. Don't be fooled by
those--this one is solid bright shiny sterling silver, 1 1/4" tall, 3/8"
wide>. |

Long-tailed
Parrot I wanted to call this guy the "military macaw" because of
his rigid posture... But I didn't. Not much to say about him--he's
got good details, and is a good size for necklaces or earrings. He might
not be suitable for bracelets due to the thinness of his tail. He's 1 1/4"
tall, 1/4" wide. |
$25.00 |

Flying
Conure
I love this charm. To me, it looks just like a flying jenday
conure coming in for a landing. Your eyes may see a different species, but
I'm partial to jendays. Be sure that I wear one of these proudly. He's
very detailed on the front, and flat on the back. He's 1 1/4" tall, and
7/8" wide. |

Small
Cockatoo An interesting little guy, I think perhaps he's supposed
to be a Lesser Sulfur Crested 'too, or maybe even a Galah. He does look a
bit over-fed. But he's certainly quieter than the real thing.
3-dimensional, he's got detail all the way around, and stands on the
tiniest of perches. He's 7/8" tall and 3/8" wide. |
$25.00 |
 |
Stretching
Macaw
I think this guy looks like he's having a good flap and
stretch session, maybe even screaming too. Hard to say for sure what he's
doing, but it's a nice, realistic pose. Big enough to make a nice pendant,
small enough to be earrings or a bracelet charm. He's 1" tall and 3/4"
wide. |
$25.00 |

Leadbeaters
Cockatoo
This is a gorgeous pendant of a Leadbeater's or Major
Mitchell's cockatoo. It's one-sided; the back is flat. The chain loop is
hidden on the back of the head. This pendant is much too large and heavy
to be worn anywhere but on a necklace. He's 1 3/4" tall and 3/4" wide, and
weighs 9.1 grams. |
$65.00

Mystery
Parrot
This is the rare and endangered MaCawKaTooZon, with the head
of a macaw, the crest of a cockatoo, and the body and tail of an Amazon. A
fun, cartoonish parrot charm that would be great for any type of jewelry.
He's 3/4" tall and 3/8" wide. |
