Parrot shoulder brooch
Crochet wire parrot shoulder brooch
A very unusual, one of a kind large red parrot shoulder brooch, a fun item of jewellery and he would be a wonderful companion for any pirate : )
I carefully crocheted and sewed coloured copper wire to create the parrot, I spent many hours to make him as lifelike and perfect as possible. The parrots eyes are tiny black onyx stone beads and I designed the parrot so he can sit on your shoulder but he can also be worn in the same way as an ordinary brooch, if worn in this way his back becomes the front of the brooch. The parrot has two gold plated brooch pins, one large one on his tail and one smaller one in between his feet, the tail brooch pin pins to the back of your clothing and the smaller pin pins onto your shoulder if worn as a shoulder brooch so the parrot appears to be perching on your shoulder.
The parrot measures 17cm (6.7 in) long and 4cm (1.6 in) wide. He sits well on many fabrics however the more fitted or heavier the fabric he is pinned to is the less he moves around, for example pinned to a fitted coat or jacket he will not move much at all.
