This 2"L squirrel brooch has a large red oval rhinestone body, with comma shaped crystal stones for its tail, two white rhinestone ears & one red eye, on goldtone. By Scitarelli aka M & S Mfg Co of Providence RI ca the 1950s
Very cute. Glad to see you survived your situation and are back posting smiles...
He's awesome- his tail and body reminds me a bit of a rooster/cockerel too.
Bright red/cerise is a lovely autumnal colour, and you do see lots of squirrels around this time of year so he's very seasonal
Many thanks to you all for the squirrel love

Thanks Dave for your wonderful comment, I am totally delighted to be back, this is such an interesting place to be a part of & I'm always learning. It's really terrific to find something amusing like this squirrel and share the fun with you guys - it is so quirky I just love it. Appreciate your kindness over my ordeal, still healing & will have to have a quieter holiday at home, but then I kinda like it that way :)
Lauren thank you for your fab compliments & I think this squirrel is pretty awesome too! Very nicely colored and seasonal as you said, love that sort of surprised look he's a cutie. I think of all the wild animals around the neighborhood the squirrel is happiest and certainly the busiest at this time of year
Lol Searching, I know, how about that tail & how in the world did they make those 'comma' stones for it! And they even prong set the little red eye, that is so cool right. This was a surprise find from Scitarelli, a small jewelry co I introduced on this site, and this is the only animal figural I have ever seen by them so was very lucky to come by it. One of the reasons I always liked small vintage costume jewelers is that they are big on individuality & usually don't borrow from the famous designers, and this little fellow is a daringly different example. Thank you for your fun & fantastic praise
I love the squirrel so much, lie the one on Sponge Bob, but he is missing the underwater gear. Lots of prongs to hold in the stone beauties. Magnifico !~
Phil thank you so much for your marvelous praise & love for this little squirrel, isn't it an ingenious design - and EVERYTHING prong set, even the tiny eye & small ears! That's craftsmanship for sure
Many thanks Alfie for the love for this little squirrel, I'm so pleased that you liked it and always grateful for your kind consideration
Many thanks Sean for the kind love for this little squirrel, I'm really glad that you liked it and appreciate your thoughtfulness

Scott thank you for your awesome comment & love for this lil squirrel, and all the kind loves & comments today, I will get to thanking you for all the rest very soon. It is so great to see you on this holiday weekend & BTW I love your new profile pic, very handsome & such cool glasses!
