I love the eerie sound of a lone wolf howling in the night. Wolves howl to communicate with their pack members and to ward off rivaling packs, and because wolves are nocturnal creatures, they howl more frequently when the moon is visible. The symbolism of howling at the moon is a way to express your inner truth and to let that guide you above all else.
Hand-cut from sterling silver, these wolves stands high on a mountain of Wild Horse Magnesite surrounded by a full moon depicted with heavy gauge wire.
The earrings hang from a textured sterling silver shape with a post back. They are 1-7/8" from the post to the tip of the stone.
All metal is .925 sterling silver. They have been tumble polished, given a dark patina and sealed with a protective coating.
