Leaves robed in red and gold drifts and dance like flames on fall winds. With these earrings, Wings evokes the spirits of autumn, of scarlet leaves and low golden light eddying together on the chill whirlwind of an early dusk. Each long, dangling drop is built around a focal cabochon of vibrant Red Creek jasper, rich fall shades cut into long, beveled daggers inverted to hang gracefully from sterling silver earring wires. Each cabochon is set into a fully hand-made bezel, all edges saw-cut and filed by hand and shaped to hold the stones. Organic hand-drilled tabs extend from the top of each bezel’s backing, the better to hold the coil-and-ball-bead French wires. Earrings hand 2-5/8″ long, excluding wires, by 11/16″ across at the widest point (dimensions approximate). Other views, highlighting the meticulous freehand bezel work, are shown below.
