This is a highly collectible figural brooch by the renowned American costume jewelry firm Cadoro (active 1954–1987). The piece depicts the classic holiday motif of a "Partridge in a Pear Tree" and is often cited by collectors as a "book piece" (a piece featured in jewelry reference guides), known for its whimsical design and substantial build.

There is visible enamel loss/chipping on several of the yellow pears. This is a very common age-related issue for this specific Cadoro design, as the enamel was applied thickly over curved surfaces. The blue enamel on the bird appears largely intact, which is a plus.


Metal: The gold-tone finish appears bright and retains its luster with no obvious signs of heavy tarnishing or verdigris.
