Who's a pretty expensive boy?

William Robinson, the international head of Islamic art at Christie's auction house in London, studies a late 18th century Indian emerald, ruby and diamond parrot, which is expected to fetch £400,000 to £600,000 at auction.

The ornament, from Dr Mohammed Said Farsi's collection, will go on sale on Tuesday in Christie's auction of Art of the Islamic and Indian Worlds.
