The way of the sacred is never easy, but followed properly, it is a way of great beauty and harmony. With this cuff bracelet, Wings invokes the power of the sacred space through the ancient imagery of the kiva steps, and of the medicine of the elemental forces of earth, air, water, and light. The […]
Summer days in our corner of the world show us all the shades of the sun: the pale peach of first light; the brilliant gold of the sunrise; the silvery blues that limn the clouds of the storm; the green at twilight on a clear night and the dusky rose and red of the post-storm […]
The high desert sky is full of meridian blues, that shade of electric turquoise that marks morning and afternoon here on the majority of our days. With this cuff, Wings captures all the beauty of that clear bright blue, a little fine webbing of cloud cover, and the radiance of the light. The band is […]
An essential truth of the rainy season is that from the storm, the rainbow is born. With this necklace, Wings honors the beauty and power of summer’s wild weather, the indigo blues of the thunderheads and the ethereal flash of the stormlight. The necklace is built around a focal of raw rainbow moonstone, a vaguely […]

Each dangling drop is built around a beautifully beveled teardrop cabochon of porcelain jasper, manifest in […]
Summer skies sometimes bring the gift of moonshadow to an overheated earth, the sun’s center eclipsed save for a ring of fire at the edges. With these earrings, Wings captures the darkened beauty of a moon in silhouette, limned by the sun’s silver fire behind it. Each dangling drop is centered by a large round […]
On Turtle Island, indigenous roses differ from those introduced from half a world away: desert, prairie, wood, swamp, and other roses, with wide-open petals that flower in shades that range from white to pale pink to rose and magenta to scarlet and violet. With these earrings, Wings evokes the delicate beauty of the desert roses […]
This evening’s sky is orange: a mix of setting sun, remnant cloud, and too much smoke, the whole more a dusty peach than twilight flame.
