    Direct from Japan, this bird sculpture from Multi Glass is a beauty.

    A pheasant (I think) with intricate filigrana scattered over the black interior, before application of some gold leaf and a clear case. She is a simple shape, but her face is sweet with it's beady eye and lovely golden crest.

    The clock doesn't run (even with a new battery) but no matter, who would look at it anyway when there is a bird like this one holding it.

    The last photo shows her with another Multi Glass bird I have yet to post.
    Maybe tomorrow.

      Beautiful Karen!!! You gone to the *Birds* in a very GOOD way !! This is a stunning bird......and it was mailed to you? Wow for that !!
    2. sklo42 sklo42, 7 years ago
      The detail in the body is beautiful.....and in parts so much like feathers that it's uncanny!
    3. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 7 years ago
      Gee Karen, these are really beautiful!!!
    4. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
      Thanks Miss Rose! It was packed better than anything I have ever received, which made the suspense even greater!
    5. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
      The filigrana is so complex Peggy, I don't know how they do that. It does look like feathers doesn't it! Thanks for the love and comment.
    6. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
      Thanks Judy. She is a beauty - I like her better than the taller one, which is impressive in it's own way.

      This beautiful Bird seems to be a bit upset With somthing on Her back:'Who for God's sake put it on me' ?
    8. Manikin Manikin, 7 years ago
      Love love !
    9. PhilDMorris PhilDMorris, 7 years ago
      It is a beauty, but now it has function also !

      Since clock doesn't work, you could put a photo over clock and make it a really cool picture frame :) I did that with a decorative clock that I had. I took the clock face out and replaced it with a picture of my children and I made a cool picture holder. Just a thought!!

      Thanks Thomas, always glad to hear from you.
    12. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago

      I'm always glad to get your opinion Phil, and happy you like this one. Useful beauty is always a good thing!
    15. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
      Good idea Mrs T.
      I may just remove the clock; undecided at the moment.
    16. bijoucaillouvintage bijoucaillouvintage, 7 years ago
      Wow, it's hard to imagine how much work and mastery lies behind such wonderful pieces. Amazing!

      Oh Karen, You have even outdone yourself on this one!!! She's a beauty! Seriously, your name is written all over it. And the one in the background too! Nice job!!!
    21. shareurpassion shareurpassion, 7 years ago
      It's better than the Nike Swoosh!
    22. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
      Ha! Thanks Share! I think Nike copied from the Japanese script when they invented their swoosh anyway :))

      Thanks for the love and praise;always happy to have that!
