Tiny Vintage Squirrel Charm birks • Each earrings holds five

• Each earrings holds five cultured seed pearls and one imitation turquoise

Sweet and charming

and full of history

we can't get enough of the contrast of the sextet of square cut sapphires with all the rounded edges of gold

Tiny Vintage Squirrel Charm birks • Each earrings holds fiveLovely and detailed, this little squirrel modeled lifting a hard won nut to mouth represents hard work and preparedness, foresight and resourcefulness. While it's easy to see their playful nature as they chase one another 'round tree trunks, they balance fun with a steady collecting and storing, an eye to the future and survival. Very good vintage condition with wear in line with age and use. Details: 9k yellow gold, with British hallmarks for Chester
