This little starling is a lovely piece for a cabinet of curiosities. Let's first talk about its black wooden base, an essential element in any self-respecting cabinet of curiosities! We very often find shells, corals or even marine animals on these famous bases, but ultimately, aren't birds more eligible for these elegant perches?
