This delightful vintage jeweled ostrich trinket box is a charming miniature accent filled with color, sparkle, and whimsical personality. Crafted in cast metal with hand-applied enamel, the ostrich features vibrant jewel tones including cobalt blue, blush pink, teal, and gold, accented with shimmering rhinestones along the neck for added brilliance.
The sculptural body opens via a hinged compartment, making it perfect for holding a tiny ring, charm, or keepsake. Resting on a textured base, this piece has wonderful dimensional detail and makes a standout decorative accent despite its petite size.
A perfect addition to Hollywood Regency, eclectic, maximalist, whimsical, or vintage trinket box collections, and a lovely gift for collectors of jeweled animals.
