"So beautiful!"
I have been wanting this for years. I bought the matching earrings a while back. I always expected the pendant to be just a little larger than the earrings as the measurements are stated as so. It is a good size pendant and I love it! It is really a gorgeous piece of art. It s not too large, but it definitely makes a statement. You certainly can appreciate the little bird on it. The necklace it comes on is very pretty also. I am so Happy with this purchase!

"These earrings make an outsize statement for their size."
Pretty and delicate, the silver and carnelian complement each other beautifully. They hang lightly on the ear while creating a compelling picture of birds among a surrounding of flora. I have bought many products from NOVICA and have always been delighted with my purchases. Thank you Julie
