All right, we're earlier this evening. I promised new earrings: We have new earrings!
These are Wings's latest, completed only within the last few hours, and they're the newest in what is one of his most popular styles by far: traditional drops featuring multiple stones, ingot beads, and dancing saw-cut pendants. And these are created using fabulous combinations of color and material.
The first pair, shown above, is definitely one for this time of year. They're called Berry Moon On a Blue Lake, and they're built around bright royal blue beveled squares of lapis lazuli beneath the delicate pink of queen conch shell (sometimes just called pink shell). They're finished off with tiny ingot beads made by hand, and freehand saw-cut pendants in Eye of Spirit shapes stamped with a traditional motif to honor the sacred directions. You can read the full description here.
Of these two new pairs, though, it's the second one that's my favorite, and wow, is it ever:

This pair is called The Night's Reflected Fire, a reference to how the glow of Father Sun gives Grandmother Moon her harvest/hunter's amber robes. And these are made with amber above impossibly glossy onyx squares, but this amber is something special: It's so translucent that, set against the sterling silver of the bezel, it shade-shifts as ethereally as a fire opal. You'll see pinks in it if you hold it to the light. You can read the full description here.
And we desperately need to make some sales. We have two four-figure payments due to the tax man (one on this year's payment plan plus next year's 2nd-quarter prepayment) over the next two weeks, and I have a $500 medical treatment coming up on June 1. Selling these would help a lot, as would additional sales from our current inventory. Wings's main page is here. Inquiries via the site's Contact form. And shares of the site links are much appreciated.
