These extraordinary gold and jewell-encrusted peacocks were made by the father of my two grandsons in Australia. His father was/is also in the business, and makes only the very finest, most expensive pieces, for those who have several bucks to spare (not I; nor are they actually my 'tasse de thé').The peacocks are, at present, to be found (heavily guarded) in a hotel lobby in Macau, Hong Kong.
My son-in-law has made pieces for members of the royal family, and is well known amongst certain of London's most exclusive jewellers, who are commissioned to make such things.
So, if you're looking for a coronation crown, a diamond covered ipod, or just a special gold mascot for the front of your Royce... I'll put you in touch!
