This auction is for a fabulous, vintage, bird of paradise figural brooch.  The tail feathers are layered and enameled in aqua, turquoise and light green.  There is minimal enamel loss from age and use, but in great vintage condition.  There is a spot for the eye, but this spot did not ever have a stone.  This brooch is 3 1/2" from top to bottom.  There is some enamel on the sides and backs of the feathers, but do not think there has been any touch up on the enamel.  Believe it is all original enamel.  Beautiful brooch!  PLEASE NOTE:  Although all my jewelry listings will be marked that returns are not accepted (due to eBay's change of policy from 14 day returns to 30 days), if an item is damaged in shipment or there are any condition issues that I missed, please send me a note and a photograph.  No returns will be accepted without a photograph.   We will not accept returns because an item "does not fit" or because the buyer "changed their mind". Buyer’s address must be registered in English on eBay or I cannot ship Global shipping, and that is the only method I will use to ship internationally. We only ship our jewelry in a box, so be sure to check out our other listings and our eBay store items (over 2850, all on sale).  Several pieces of jewelry will ship for the same price as one piece, or jewelry can ship with larger pieces at no extra cost.  We don’t mark up our items by a great amount, so reasonable offers only please on store items. We do have a layaway plan available for items or groups of items totaling $200 or more.   I am happy to ship to third party shippers for my international clients as well.   Great low starting bid, and being sold with NO RESERVE!
