And now, third and finally, my personal favorites [of the earrings]: three extraordinary new pairs, all set with jewels. Normally I would have ordered these rather differently, but given the naja-style necklaces below, I decided instead to lead with the naja-style earrings, too:

These are called The Lunes of Twilight. Yes, they're little crescents, although not so little; at 1.5" long and 1.25" across, they're a bit larger than the conchas in the previous post. Yes, each naja is saw-cut individually, entirely freehand, and the stampwork is so simple and elegant and absolutely dazzlingly beautiful. The stones are amethyst, highly domed and such a deep violet that they look almost like fine iolite. These are incredible; no two ways about it. You can read their full description here. 

And so the second one today is related to this by color, albeit in a different shape:

You might expect that the najas would be my favorites, and they're close, but for me? This pair is it. These are called The Medicine of Night. The najas are more costly than the conchas; these are little more costly yet, albeit well within Wings's mid-range. They're traditional conchas, round instead of oval, and a little larger: again, 1.5" long by 1.5" wide. They're set with more of those incredible, highly domed, deeply-hued amethyst cabs, and the stampwork that surrounds them is magnificent: clear, deep, and perfectly even. You can read their full description here.

Finally, the third jeweled pair, which was actually the first of the three to be created:

This pair is named not for the stone color overall, but for the flash of the color shift within them.  These are All the Blue Moons, and they're set with Labradorite rounds that are highly domed and possessed of fabulous cobalt blue flash from deep inside. These are ovals, and technically, they're the largest of the group at 1.75" long by 1.5" across. Again, they're domed traditionally into conchas, with rays on the outer surface scored freehand, ending in radiant arcs linked by tiny hoops. And then they have those fabulous stones at the center. You can read their full description here.
