Details & measurements
A vibrant vintage Attwood & Sawyer parrot brooch, signed A&S to the reverse. This striking figural piece captures the bird perched on a branch, its long flowing tail extending gracefully below.
The head is richly encrusted with clear crystals surrounding a bright green crystal eye, while the body and wings feature bold enamel work in vivid green, red and deep blue. Fine gold-plated detailing outlines the individual wing feathers, creating texture and movement, with additional crystal accents on the body and tail tip.
Attwood & Sawyer, founded in Wales in 1956, were renowned for their high-quality costume jewellery. They produced pieces inspired by historical designs (including the Duchess of Windsor’s collection) and supplied jewellery for television series such as Dallas and Dynasty. Their colourful figural brooches, like this parrot, remain highly sought after by collectors today.
The brooch has a secure pin fastening and is presented in excellent vintage condition, with bright plating, intact enamel and crystals in place. A colourful, characterful piece that works beautifully on a lapel, coat or as a statement accessory.
