Photo Jewelry Dolphin Collectible gifts - Pin /Brooches

A photo of Dolphins leaping in a golden sea is featured on this collectible dolphin brooch. The cameostone has a mother -of-pearl, opal glaze that glows up through the semi-transparent dolphin picture, creating an almost holographic effect. Colors seem to turn metallic and the cream colored background appears much like opal when tilted in refracted light.

The pendant is encircled with brass ball chain and amber seed beads, sits atop delicate, gilted filigree. Dangling beneath are the finest amber and gold Czech crystal and red flower jasper gem stones featuring a platinum pearl droplet in the center. Matching earrings make an unusual dolphin gift set for the dolphin gift lover

A 3/4 inch wide, stainless pin back makes attachment easy. Measures aprx. 1 1/2" X 2 1/2". Convert this brooch to a pendant with detachable bail by wearing it on a brown velvet cord necklace.

• Mating normally occurs during the spring months. The male and female court prior to mating. A female dolphin is pregnant for 11-12 months. The calf is delivered tail first, and is capable of swimming and breathing within the first minutes. The calf may nurse for as long as 12 to 18 months after birth.

• Dolphins are extremely and almost constantly vocal. They are capable of two kinds of sounds. Clicks are used as a form of sonar, in which echoes of sounds from surrounding objects enable the animals to detect it. Dolphins use whistles to communicate a particular emotional state to influence the behavior of other dolphins.
