Sterling silver and more sterling silver! The feather design is an object that is deeply revered and a sign of high honor between the owner, the Creator, and the bird from which the feather came. It symbolizes trust, honor, strength, wisdom, power, and freedom. These beauties shine and shimmer, gently swayng from your ears. I can picture wearing them while watching a desert sunset with the firey colors reflecting off the shimmering silver. Available in matte 14k gold vermeil as well.
