It's six new works by Wings, all at the same price point.

I've been promising the two rings for a while, and the four pairs of earrings were completed yesterday: It's six new works by Wings, all at the same price point. It's a lower price point than most of his work, too: $425 each. [And if I could sell all six, we'd be good for the rest of the month, maybe longer.]

First up is the ring shown above, from a top-view angle:

This is The Lodge of the Night Spirits: wrought in vintage style of heavy 9-gauge sterling silver, freehand score- and stampwork all the way around, simple but substantial. Fully sizeable at no extra charge. You can read its full description here.

The second ring looks very like the first, with similar stampwork, but it's not identical:

The second ring features the same scorework style, the same internal imagery, but it's compressed slightly, with a wider edge (and freehand work is never identical, anyway). This is A Circle of Stars, and it's made of the same heavy 9-gauge sterling silver, and is also fully sizeable at no charge. You can read its full description here.

Next up are the earrings, again, all offered at the same price point. First up is one in electric shades:

That neon color is lime jade, a pair of beveled squares; at top, icy rainbow moonstone. This pair is called, aptly enough, Aspen Leaf and Moonlight, a reference to what the latter's icy glow does to the leaves, especially when new or just about to turn. The vintage-style repoussé heart pendants are created by hand, as are the pair of sterling silver ingot starburst overlays between upper and lower stones on each drop. You can read their full description here.

The second pair is my own personal favorite (although it's a close contest with the fourth, further below):

Here, it's carnelian fire and iolite ice, in a pair called Night Comes For the Setting Sun. Carnelian is usually mostly opaque, but these are positively translucent, channeling the light all the way through. The iolite is translucent, too, and electric in hue; between them, another pair of overlays formed of hand-made sterling silver ingot starbursts. The repoussé pendants here are diamond-shaped, the traditional motif of the Eye of Spirit. You can read their full description here.

The third pair is all about the night:

This pair, in beautiful black and white, is called The Moon Rides the Winds of Night. Slightly larger base cabochons here, in rich squares of onyx, beveled at the corners and impossibly glossy and deep. At top, shimmering little full moons — rainbow moonstone, with plenty of ice and plenty of color flash, too. Again, hand-made sterling silver ingot starburst overlays link them, and repoussé Eye of Spirit pendants dance below. You can read their full description here.

Fourth and last, but by no means least, it's the blues of sky and deepest space:

This pair is a close second on my "favorites" list; it's called The Storm In the Stars. The lower cabs are beveled squares of royal lapis lazuli, perfect cobalt blue with a stardust shimmer of pyrite and calcite. Above them, more of those tiny translucent iolite rounds, like stars being born, again, above pairs of hand-made sterling silver ingot overlays in the form of starbursts. At the bottom, another pair of repoussé pendants, hand-made in vintage style in the old-style shape of the Eye of Spirit. You can read their full description here. 

As always, Wings's main page is here. Inquiries via the site's Contact form. We will still need to make consistent sales in this fourth year of pandemic and loss, and we are facing enormous expenses in the middle of our worst sales year in a very long time, so shares are desperately needed and much appreciated.
