I said elsewhere earlier today that I would try to get these up tonight, and I'm managing it just by the skin of my teeth (and once the threads are run, I'm going to bed, because the bivalent booster body aches and fatigue have hit). It's two new works by Wings, one pin and one ring.

First up is the pin, shown above. The is A Prayer For the Peaks, which, if you've paid any attention at all to the ravages of climate catastrophe and drought as I've been chronicling them, you'll know is needed urgently here now. And this one is fabulous, an eagle-feather pin almost four inches long, featuring five different traditional smithing techniques, and set with a beautifully banded forest-green oval of malachite. You can read its full description here.

The second work, the ring, is the latest in Wings's revived (and informal) two-stone series:

This one combines the spirits of two earlier ones into a set of bookending lights. It's called At Each End of the Stars, and it refers to the fire of the sun and ice of the moon and the arc of the stars in between the two (get a load of the pattern on the convex surface of the band in the additional photos in the gallery entry). You can read its full description here.

As always, Wings's main page is here. Inquiries and orders via the site's Contact form. Ans we still badly need to make consistent sales to make it through the rest of this third year of pandemic and loss, and the holiday sales season is now officially under way, so shares of the site links are much appreciated.
