Sneak Peek: Earrings On Sale! Updated With Links!

Note: Each item is now posted; I've indexed the direct links to each itme at the bottom of this post.

This is an early-bird special just for those of you who check in here periodically — I don't even have them up on the Web site yet.  [That's my task for tonight, actually.]

In going through some stored items, we came across some miscellaneous jewelry pieces by other artisans. They're beautiful earrings, but they need to find a home. Some are from Wings's personal collection, items pawned or traded by other Native artists; two pair are by one of his young artist relatives; and five are by an artisan from another pueblo whose work we've carried off and on for many years now. 

The latter artist does beautifully expensive inlay work, and the stones and craftsmanship are both valuable in their own right. But space is scarce and it's time to make room, so right now, we're offering her earrings at $100 off: regular price $235 a pair, now $125 a pair (+ s/h/i, of course). We have the lapis/spiny oyster shell pair shown above; a pair of green serpentine and coral; one pair of pipestone triangles with malachite inlay; and one pair each of pipestone and blue turquoise chip inlay with sterling silver heartlines. 

We also have a pair of plain green turquoise drops; a pair of repoussé concha-style drops with turquoise accents; and two dangly pairs of Pilar slate earrings, one carved into feather shapes. And although they're not on sale, we have three necklaces to be added, as well, each slightly longer than choker-length: two lapis lazuli; one apple coral. I'll have everything posted at the Web site later this evening, preparatory to being featured tomorrow, but if you're interested in a particular pair and want an advance viewing, e-mail me at Ajijaakwe [at] gmail [dot] com.

UPDATE: Each of the items described above is now posted in the Other Artists: Miscellaneous Jewelry Gallery of the Web site. Each link is indexed below:
