One of the first signs that fall has fully arrived is the turning of the leaves, aspens ablaze in a cascade of golden fire down the sides of the mountains. Wings evokes the aspen line and the whirling sparks of loose leaves on the wind with this necklace strung in all the jeweled shades of autumn flame. At the center are three chunky nuggets of lightly polished citrine, separated by polished freeform amber beads and two groups of “leaves” in the form of thick chips of raw golden amber. Moving upward, single yellow quartz barrels lead to earthy fossilized coral in two sizes and shades ranging from clay to gold to ivory, thence to shimmering Pietersite segments in chatoyant gold and midnight blue, cobalt lapis lazuli, electric green chrome diopside, and tiny rounds of African jade in rich forest greens, all separated by paired miniature spacer beads in diamond-cut sterling silver. Necklace hangs 20″ long, excluding sterling silver findings (dimensions approximate). Designed jointly by Wings and Aji. Another view shown below. Necklace coordinates with Bonfire Beneath a Harvest Moon earrings [sold] and The Sparks of a Scarlet Sunrise coil bracelet [sold]. From the Fire series in Wings’s new collection, The Autumn Elementals (all pieces shown below).
