One of my favourite Australian birds is the little Silvereye. It is a tiny silver and green little finch like bird. I have been fortunate to find some empty Silvereye eggshells and have begun exploring the idea of fabricating little copper pendant boxes to house them. This one has a black and teal patina with a silver framed glass front. On the back I have etched the words, "bird, fly, and egg." It protects the delicate cargo and lets me share it's beauty with others.
