[ Sunray ] Battleship Earrings

Description

Woven to evoke rebellion through grace. The double-arrow geometry reminds us that strength can be both sharp and fluid, that forward motion doesn’t always require force — sometimes it’s the steady insistence of knowing who you are and where you’re going. These earrings are for the moments when you need to move against the current without abandoning softness.

Twined with merino weft yarns around thigh-spun Chilkat warp with slivers of cedar bark — the warp ends fan downward from an antiqued silver 1″ ring like sunlight on shielded water, honoring the resilience that comes from connection and the courage that rises from tending to one another.

Twined to accompany ceremonial regalia or to offer everyday armor, these adornments hold both defiance and beauty. All people are welcome to adorn themselves in Native-made ceremonial wear such as these earrings; they carry not only glamour, but the steady presence of lineage, care, and self-determined becoming.

These earrings are woven following the Ravenstail tradition, and therefore have a front and back. The third photo shows the back.

Sterling silver lever-back hooks. If warp ends take on a life of their own and begin “tweaking out,” simply dampen them with a touch of water and hang or lay the earrings flat to dry.
