Description

the well-carved parrot with its head turned towards its back, grasping a sprig of peaches in its beak, the wings tucked on the sides, the stone of translucent even white tone

Condition

The overall condition is very good. The stone is very well polished. There is just a tiny minute nick to the tip of the tail. The actual colour is very close to the catalogue illustration.
