Maximum quantity available reached.
As a child, I wandered through the woods behind my house, hunting for peacock feathers. There were wild peacocks in the woods that would roost in the trees and shed feathers all over the place. There were times when I could come home with 50 or 60 feathers in one trip! Needless to say, I have a fond memory of peacocks and have been wanting to make these for a very long time. I love how they came out!

Hand-crafted from a solid sheet of metal, I hammer and texture the tail with the feather details. I give these birds a three-dimensional form and then add layers and layers of patina to give them the vivid blues and greens that peacocks are known for. Multiple layers of clear coating help to protect the patina. Edges are brushed out to bring out some of the soft bronze color on their beaks, chest and plumage.

*Patina varies from piece to piece, giving them each a unique artistic quality. Care is taken to match earrings as closely as possible in color and depth.

  • Size: 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"
  • This is a made-to-order item. Made-to-order items ship within 3-5 business days and are made especially for you.
  • All copper and bronze items have a tough, clear, protective coating that helps protect finishes and reduces tarnishing corrosion and oxidation.
  • Each piece is individually shaped, pounded and matched, so there will be very slight variations between each item.

Care Instructions:

To help preserve coating, avoid contact with hair products, lotions and perfumes. To prevent scratches and chips in the clear coating, store jewelry so that the metal doesn’t rub on other items or on itself. 

To clean, wash copper and bronze in warm water with mild soap and a soft cloth. Polish sterling silver with a soft polishing cloth. When cleaning soft stones (pearls, opals and amber), be sure polish is safe to use on them.
