The bird died. The skull stayed. It hangs from a curb chain, leaf charms at intervals along its length. The brow is marked. The eye sockets cut deep. The beak left full-length.

The charms trail along the chain on either side of the central skull like a procession across the collarbone. The piece carries a watchful, oracular weight.

Crafted from brass with silver or 18K gold plating and an antiqued finish. Sold as a single piece.
