In our way, to give an offering is to show respect: acknowledgment and gratitude and honor to those from whom we seek assistance, whether people or spirits. In some of our cultures, even the artistic and cultural embodiment of animal and other spirits may hold an offering bundle, a collection of feathers or gemstones or shells intended to show respect for their power and gratitude for the possibility of sharing it. Wings pays tribute to the value of its role with this small spiral of shell and traditional jewels, all in the traditional colors of such gifts. Anchored at either end by dark translucent olivella-shell heishi, it flows into bright pale blue turquoise nuggets, freeform and substantial. The Skystones give way to round, highly-polished orbs of mother-of-pearl shell, centered by a bold expanse of freeform nuggets of natural Mediterranean coral, flame-red and as old as time. Designed jointly by Wings and Aji.
