In Victorian symbolism the birds express enduring love and loyalty and the promise of a safe return back home and it is these hopes the set of Mexican silver earrings at hand encapsulates...

Quite often anonymous, as in our case, these pieces can be fascinatingly weird, at times even bordering on the surreal.

The bracelet has a 6" inner circ...
