Here they are: Wings's two newest works.

All right, I know, I know:  I've been promising these since yesterday, but things have been chaotic here all week long. But here they are: Wings's two newest works.

First up is the cuff shown above, and it's fabulous. It's another in the extended series of solid sterling silver cuffs that he had in the works months ago but has only recently been able to get around to completing. This one, especially apt for our weather this week (and supposedly next), is called Which Way the Rain Falls. Heavy-gauge triangle wire, stamped deeply and uniformly on both sides of the apex and on the apex itself, with beveled ends and edging on the inner band. You can read its full description here, and trust me, you do want to click through and see it from other angles, too.

The second work is also made with sterling silver triangle wire, but it's a pair of earrings, and in a relatively unusual style for him:

These are hoops on posts, a classic traditional style but not one he does much anymore.  These are called, aptly enough, Circling the Peaks. These are lightweight, but again, with deep, even, incredibly uniform stampwork that pops.  You can read their full description here, and again, you do want to see the photos.

As always, Wings's main page is here. Inquiries via the site's Contact form. Also as always, ee will still need to make consistent sales to make it through this third year of pandemic and loss, and we now have to make up for the last two weeks' biannual outlay, well into four figures of payments and medical expenses that must be paid, so shares of the site links are much appreciated.
