In Te Reo Māori, `miro' means to twirl, twist and spin - perfectly fitting for Miromiro (NZ Tomtit) as it darts about the forest. This little bird was also nicknamed torotoro, or scout by Māori for its habit of appearing from nowhere in the forest, and varies in plumage from white to brown to black, with some male varieties sporting golden yellow chests.
A sterling silver feather (24mm x 5mm including ring), hand painted with porcelain paint and suspended from a 45cm fine sterling silver chain, with a 5cm extender.
