The amazing puffin, with its comical appearance, is brought to life by our silversmiths in this gorgeous sterling silver and enamel family of models. Puffins are carnivores and live off small fish such as herring, hake and sand eels. Although puffins are not classed as an endangered species, populations in some places are in decline. The main threats are overfishing, which can lead to a shortage of food for puffins, and pollution – particularly oil spills. Available in a choice of 3 different sizes, these puffins are highly collectible and make for great gifts. The puffins have been lacquered to provide protection against tarnishing and are supplied in one of our gift boxes. For maintenance purposes, use a soft cloth to clean the item from time to time.
