Hermès Enamel bird bangle

This Hermès Enamel bird bangle prints pheasant-like birds in gold and rust across a black ground, red and blue detailing tucked into the feathers and beaks where most people never bother to look twice. The bird motif traces back to Hermès’ long-running enamel jewelry tradition, the same silk-scarf print language shrunk down and wrapped around a metal cuff instead of draped over shoulders. Gold-plated trim runs both edges. Enamel fired on and sealed hard enough to survive decades of wrist contact without fading. A Hermès Enamel bird piece like this one was never meant to sit in a drawer, black ground or not.
