This is a cast of a Wren's Skull; an exact replica of the original, produced from recycled 925 sterling silver, using the age old technique of lost wax casting. A protected species and an exquisite little bird, this one originally found in a friends garden, deceased, probably killed by a cat. For those familiar with the story, you will know the Wren was 'The King of the Birds'. Such a small, beautiful creature, but very noisy and feisty for certain. The skull was such a delicate piece to be cast. It is hallmarked and measures 2.7cm x 1.3. It comes on a 16", 1.7mm Silver Belcher chain.
