Sunshine Auntie Earrings
Woven to evoke Big Auntie Energy in the wearer. A simple Ravenstail pattern twined with a merino/silk-blend weft lines on 1.15″ antiqued silver half-moons upon 3″ warp ends. Chilkat warp hand-spun with slivers of cedar bark and crimped with tin jingle cones.
Twined to accompany ceremonial regalia or simply to offer an aura of regality, both indigenous and non-indigenous folk are welcome and encouraged to adorn themselves in Native-made ceremonial garb such as these earrings. These adornments are not just infused with bougie glamour but ancestral tradition and strength.
These earrings are woven following the Ravenstail tradition, and therefore have a front and back. The third photo shows the back.

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 lie the earrings in place to dry.
