These vintage (1950s, I think) lampwork hummingbirds all have scarlet heads and aqua wings and tails; the larger necklace pendant has a black beak and eyes.
I've added matching Austrian crystal aquamarine, light Siam ruby and jet beads, and tiny, shiny jet black seed beads to make an 18" strand that closes with a sterling silver "S" hook.
The pendant drops about 1-1/2" below the strand, has a wingspan of about 1-1/8", and is a bit more than 1-1/4" from beaktip to the end of his tail feathers.
The earrings drop about 1-3/4" from the tops of their sterling silver French hooks, and these birds are 3/4" long, with a 3/4" wingspan.
Wear this set and let your dreams take flight!
