Game Old Bird
A cool elongated octagonal pale green paste seal with charming imagery of a songbird.
Crafted 14ct yellow gold.
Why we love it
We just love this antique seal’s bones; the colour and shape being especially charming.
Depicted we have a bird, likely a partridge which calls to mind the English term of cheeky endearment that your wicked aunty may be a ‘Game Old Bird’. A term of affection for an older woman who still lives life to the full and may or may not create havoc at a party.
She’s the drunk relative dancing at the wedding basically. She is fun, harmless and full of belly laughs. Everyone loves her charisma and warmth and fun filled frolics. Because she’s a ‘Game Old Bird’.
Wear this to celebrate being an active and vivacious participant in life. ALL of your life. And to hell with those ready to curl up and die at the age of 35. Seriously, F*ck ’em.
