Hi all. I had this pair of feather earrings that were one of my go-to pairs, but lost one recently on a night out I’ll check one location, but I did a lot of walking, could’ve fallen anywhere.
Lesson learned: put backers on the French wires!!
My question to you guys is do you think the artist would make a replacement? Or do I just buy another pair, or just have one long feather? I’m not big on wearing mismatched earrings. They were hallmarked, but I don’t have a photo of it at the moment. Photo of the remaining feather
Well that’s a bummer! If you know who the artist is then maybe your best bet is contacting them. Even if they can’t make one, maybe they would have another pair.
I wear a lot of mismatched earrings, but only little studs. I used to wear one dangly one, but don’t really do that anymore. Although I still think it looks cool! And I’m like you. I’ve learned the hard way to always put a back on a wire.
Ok, so I’m finally home and have the earring in hand. It’s a Raymond Coriz piece, from Santo Domingo Pueblo.
I have searched online and social media for an account or a way to contact him, but to no avail to far. Am I missing something?
Pueblodirect dot com has a pendant that is nearly identical (and mirrored) to my lone earring, perhaps I should just buy it and have a French wire attached
If you can’t find him, there’s an Navajo artist by the name of Harvey Mace who specializes in making feather jewelry. You might check with him to see if he could make something similar. I think buying the pendant, if it’s similar in size, sounds like a good idea.
I’ll check one location, but I did a lot of walking, could’ve fallen anywhere.
