Puffin Charm Sterling Silver | Made in USA

Solid sterling silver has a weight and coolness that hollow imports cannot replicate. Our .925 alloy contains 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper — never nickel, which affects an estimated 10-20% of the population according to the CDC. After lost-wax casting, each puffin is individually filed, sanded, and polished through progressive stages to a mirror-bright finish.

Atlantic puffins spend most of their lives at sea, only coming ashore to breed on coastal cliffs in the North Atlantic. They can dive to depths of 200 feet and carry up to a dozen fish crosswise in their beaks at once — a feat made possible by the unique hinged structure of their jaw. Often called "sea parrots" or "clowns of the sea," puffins are among the most charismatic seabirds in the world.

A delightful gift for birdwatchers, marine biologists, Iceland travelers, anyone who loves coastal wildlife, or collectors of unusual animal charms. Wear on a bracelet or as a pendant. A sterling silver jump ring is included and attached.
