The crow is made of carved kalgan jasper and obsidian, with silver gilt legs and aquamarine eyes, to create the most realistic effect as possible.
With it's measurements of 3.1'' x 6.2'' x 2.2'' (7.8 x 15.7 x 5.7 cm) the bird is a bit bigger than most other Fabergé miniature animals. It was bought by Queen Alexandra in 1914, and now has it's place in the Royal Collection.
It's perfect!! I love crows too, have since a child, I always thought they were smart, one always follows me, well walks beside me like it wants to chat, haha. Plus, one of my favourite movies is The Crow. And you & I love Poe, so we need this, haha!! It's perfect and I love the different materials used to make it more realistic!! Stunning. Happy Friday doll, I hope it's a gorgeous one for you Xxxx
ReplyDeletea work of art for sure! love how realistic it looks.
ReplyDeleteI adore crows (and ravens). A few days ago I had the chance to photograph a baby crow and it was the most adorable thing ever!
Ravens are a favorite for me too! I have one tattooed on my right forearm! :) xx
