Pileated Woodpecker Pin
With its bold, white stripes and red crest, the striking look of the Pileated woodpecker grabs attention wherever it goes. Pileated woodpeckers are one of the largest woodpeckers, almost the size of a crow. Even if you can't see it, you will hear its deep, rolling pattern of tapping as it searches for food. This pin, designed by Cavin Richie, is 1½ inches high and ¾ inch wide. The pin attaches with two nickel posts. Bronze. Made in USA.

Cavin Richie
Cavin Richie grew up in Colorado surrounded by the natural beauty of the Rocky Mountains. He moved to Washington State in 1970 and has lived near the sea ever since. Cavin's designs are a reflection of his surroundings. His line includes birds, mammals and amphibians, all accurately detailed. For the past thirty years he has carved with shed elk antler and woolly mammoth ivory. These carvings became the basis for his lost wax casting jewelry.
"Carving," says Cavin "is like touching antiquity. I feel a kinship with a long lineage of carvers dating back to the Pleistocene."
We are pleased to offer these solid bronze lost wax castings. A patina complements the earthy metal, giving each piece a unique finish.
