Description: This is a rare and highly collectible Weiss figural brooch featuring an adorable yellow woodpecker perched on a branch, dating to the late 1940s to early 1950s.
The bird has a textured gold-plated finish, faux seed pearl accents, a bright red rhinestone eye, and beautiful hand-enameled yellow detailing on the crest, wings, beak, and tail. Weiss produced only a small series of enamel figural birds during this era, making this one exceptionally hard to find.
A charming and whimsical brooch that displays beautifully and is a must-have for any advanced Weiss or mid-century costume jewelry collector.
