I said I would have a new cuff, and I do. Now posted at NDN Silver, it's Wings's newest work, a vintage-style cuff completed only yesterday, and a marvel of freehand silverwork.

It's called Stars Float Down Like Butterflies, and it's formed of heavy-gauge sterling silver half-round wire, radiant starburst butterfly motifs alternating with tiny five-pointed stars down its convex surface. Both narrow edges are stamped freehand, as well, in repeating patterns, and along both sides of the inner band, scores of freehand lines are etched into the silver, an homage to one of the oldest silverwork techniques of them all. You can read its full description here, and be sure to scroll down and see all the photos of it, from every angle. It's gorgeous.

Inquiries via the site's Contact formWe 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.
