Quail Charm Sterling Silver | Made in USA
That single forward-curving plume — the signature topknot of the California quail — is the detail that makes this bird unmistakable, and it's rendered in full sculptural depth on this 5/8" x 5/8" sterling silver charm. The plump body, short tail, and fine feather texturing visible on both sides are all present in the 3D lost-wax casting, which is what sets this piece apart from flat-stamped alternatives.

Each charm goes through 8+ hours of hand-finishing per batch after casting: filing the sprue, sanding rough surfaces, working through tripoli compound, then rouge polish, and a final buff. That sequence is what produces the bright, lasting finish. Made in USA, the piece weighs a solid 2.1 grams and includes a sterling silver jump ring, attached and ready.
Named California's state bird in 1931, the quail is a familiar presence in chaparral, suburban gardens, and open scrubland across the West. It's recognized instantly — not just by birders, but by anyone who has watched a small flock scurry single-file across a trail. A thoughtful gift for California natives, hunters, naturalists, backyard birders, or anyone who keeps quail. Hang it on a charm bracelet, use it as a pendant on a delicate chain, or pair two with ear wires.
