Type: Figurine,Brand: Unbranded,Material: Metal,Composition: 900 Silver,Country of Origin: Mexico Pair of Mexican or Peruvian Whimsical Birds with Fan Tails 900 Purity Silver Presented is a pair of very richly decorated fan-tailed birds holding a flower blossom in their beaks, made entirely of 900 purity silver. These are all hand-chased with nice feather details and delightfully large, at 7 inches tall to the top of the tail feathers. The underside of the bases are stamped 900, indicating the purity of silver. We have also tested them and guarantee the 90 percent purity of silver. There are no maker's signatures that we can find on the pieces. The condition of the pair of birds is very good overall and they display beautifully. The only flaw you'll notice is at the tip of the birds' body. The tail end of the body of both birds ends in a little pointed cap where a double loop is attached. Strung through the loops are two little rings of eight dangling silver beads. On both, there's some darkness at the juncture where the cap attaches, where the solder shows a little oxidation, and on one bird, the loop is oriented so that the beads don't hang perfectly. There is also a dimple in one bird's leg. We believe these minor issues are original to their production. Dimensions: One bird is 7 inches and the other is 6 3/4 inches tall. Both are 4 3/4 inches long by 3 5/8 inches wide. Weight: 765 grams for the pair
