The birdcages are my best examples of the wabi-sabi style.  The adorable wonkiness of the cage takes on that irresistible unpretentiousness which seems to delight the little birds the most.  No tools were used in shaping this, only to harden it into its domed shape to allow for movement of the bird when worn.  This bird is carved shell on a twisted copper wire perch.  Pendant is 1.75 x 1 in. and comes on a 17 in. plastic-coated tan wire.
