Centuries of crude engraving and wishful thinking softened the eagle into a cormorant and the eagle's sprig into seaweed, and a city found its emblem by happy accident. Two of her descendants have stood 300 feet above the Mersey since 1911, wings half-raised on the Royal Liver Building — Bella facing out to sea for the ships coming home, Bertie turned inland over the city. Local lore says should they ever take flight, Liverpool falls with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is cast in solid 9ct Yellow Gold and modelled fully in the round, so she's just as good from the back. Feathers chased with fine texture, the long legs and webbed feet picked out, polished highlights catching against the deeper chasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eItem Details:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eERA:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage c.1985\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMEASUREMENTS:\u003c\/b\u003e Pendant is 23.5mm long including jump ring.\u003cbr\u003ePendant is 13.5mm wide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWEIGHT:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.2g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMATERIALS:\u003c\/b\u003e Tests as 9ct Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHALLMARKS:\u003c\/b\u003e FAW, 9, 375, London Leopard Head, Date Letter I for 1985\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePACKAGING:\u003c\/b\u003e Your order will be gift-wrapped free of charge in a Lillicoco cardboard box made from recycled materials, tied with a ribbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEXCELLENT:\u003c\/b\u003e The Gold surfaces are bright with only light surface scratches and minimal wear to the high points, consistent with age.
