Our world is made of earth and water, fire and air, and of such ethereal materials as moondust and starlight. So, too, are our women, warriors all, emerging from the strength of the soil and the spirits of the skies. Wings pays tribute to the elemental force and ephemeral light of their beings with the latest in his Warrior Woman series, created in memory of his mother and in honor of all women. She is cut, freehand, of sterling silver, her traditional dress formed of thunderhead symbols that meet kiva steps to form a sacred space that points to all directions. Her left hand holds a crescent moon filled with starlight, hand-stamped with five-pointed stars surrounded by glowing rays of light; in her right, she carries a tiny by spectacularly chatoyant moonstone, an earthy symbol of women’s power and a bit of moondust collected into a gem. Over her right shoulder coils a serpent made of sterling silver patterned wire, his sinuous shape a signifier of prosperity. Pin stands 2.75″ high at the highest point by 2″ across at the widest point; cabochon is 3/16″ across (dimensions approximate).
