Tui fob.


Another beautiful fob by Caroline Mitchell just got added to our website here, the Tui! Tui are considered to be very intelligent, much like parrots. They also resemble parrots in their ability to clearly imitate human speech, and were trained by Māori to replicate complex speech. Tui are also known for their noisy, unusual call, different for each individual, that combine bellbird-like notes with clicks, cackles, timber-like creaks and groans, and wheezing sounds.

The soft embroidered, beaded and sequined fob is a superb ornament for Christmas, and all year round.
