Sadly, it has lost all plumage to it's head,  :( , but it does have labels  :D... Pink ,controlled bubbles,with gold, also with yellow and black cane eyes. With head feathers it would be approx. 5.5 inches tall.

Here is a link to an intact one  ;D (scroll down to the left)  Courtesy of the Murano Zoo !

Ta Rose, they really are great & cute !

The head feathers were missing when I bought it . It's good to have the labels though and to examine the piece in detail , it might help me (and others)  ID some more pieces  . I love the subtle pink colour . It's the first Salviati bird I have found and it has made me keen to search for others.
