The bright red cardinal looks especially stunning against winter's snowy white backdrop perched on an evergreen bough. Our Cardinal On Branch figurine is hand-painted with layers of translucent red enamels with hand-set Swarovski light siam and scarlet colored crystals sparkling over his chest, crest, wings, and tail. Each figurine in the cast in 13 individual pewter sections, soldered together and finished in 14K Gold. Our finest artisans at the Jay Strongwater Rhode Island workshop bring all the elements together to complete each Cardinal on Branch Figurine.
