Following the success of our sell out Ozzy pin badges, the mighty bull has been miniaturised into a brand-new 3D die-cast pendant, complete with popping purple enamel eyes and bags of local swagger. Crafted by Birmingham legend The Urban Giant, it’s a pocket-sized icon for the proudly Bull-hearted. Each piece comes tucked into a cute I CHOOSE BIRMINGHAM branded black-and-white drawstring pouch, ready to gift, gloat over, or guard like Sméagol with new Precious. At 45mm of antique silver, with a chunky stainless-steel chain, it’s the ideal Christmas present for anyone who loves Ozzy, the city, or both — and at just £19.99 plus postage, it’s cheaper than a round at the Old Joint Stock. ichoosebirmingham.bigcartel.com/product/ozzy-t…
