Inspired by the Zakarpattia tale of the Bird Girl — a heroine who shifts between human and bird form to overcome challenges — this sculptural 18k white gold brooch captures her in a moment of transformation. The smooth, three-dimensional silhouette rests naturally on a coat or knit, supported by a balanced pin that allows the bird to appear gently perched on the shoulder. A warm, modern talisman of intuition, resilience, and strength.
