We are very excited about our Osprey Line. We have always loved the Osprey and feel very honored to have been able to capture this majestic bird’s spirit in our new T-shirt line and cast Sterling Silver Osprey rings.
Our past newsletters have been talking about lost wax casting with the focus on Custom Rings. We also lost wax cast Sterling Silver Earrings and Pendants. They are the foundation of our “Potlatch Collection”. The casting process for the earrings and pendants pushes the limits of lost wax casting because they are big enough to be flashy yet light enough to be wearable. Silver both conducts and looses heat faster than any other metal, so because it cools so fast it’s difficult to cast something as small and light as an earring. Yet, with years of trial and error, Owen has developed our own successful technique. read more »
WOLVES are an enigmatic character on the North West Coast because there is not as great a body of Wolf stories as there are for Eagle and Raven. On Haida Gwaii, on the Northwest Coast, the Wolf was only known from hearsay as there were no wolves on those islands, but the Wolf was an important family crest of the Raven Clan.
There is another mythical character that this bracelet could represent and that is WASCO, the SEA WOLF, which is an Eagle family crest. The Wasco was a giant Seawolf that caught and ate whales usually depicted as a wolf with a dorsal fin. So if you are a Raven this is a wolf, or if you are an Eagle this is Wasco, either way it brings a fierce protective spirit to your wrist.
Our Sterling Silver Northwest Box Ring was designed to symbolize floating Carved Bentwood Cedar Box full of dried Salmon or precious items swept into the river during a flood.
