Thieving Magpie -- Necklace in Bronze or Silver

Birds in the family of Corvidae, such as ravens, magpies, and crows, are known for their cleverness, their bold curiosity, and their love of shiny things... Magpies are especially notorious, known to collect little treasures and mementos. and turn their humble nests into palaces of wonder. Raven attempted to steal the sun itself, according to a Native American Legend, and charred his feathers black in the process. Two mirrored wings enfold a natural treasure, a freshwater pearl, and together form an elegant heart shape that rests beautifully just beneath the collarbone. Hand-crafted in the USA in solid bronze, oxidized to a raven-black finish. Also available in sterling silver. The chain measures 16 inches with a 4 inch extender, so the fit is adjustable between 16 and 20 inches. Wings are roughly 3" across.
