A beautifully sculptural jewel from the height of the French Art Nouveau movement, this exceptional piece is rendered in rich 20 karat gold and portrays a stork in graceful flight, gently suspending a luminous natural pearl from its beak. The feathers are exquisitely detailed, layered feather by feather, flowing into the elegant curve of the body.
