Description
The listing, Native American "like" Porcupine Earrings has ended.
These original design was taught to me by a great friend, the grandson of the "Medicine Man" of the Hopi American Indian Tribe. He, "Spirit Rabbit" passed away a number of years ago, he is certainly missed. These are made with red Swarvorski and Japanese miracle beads(sunning in the sun light). The ear wires and pins are of antiqued brass. Happy bidding and good luck! Any questions, feel free to ask.
Yes they are. They are taken from road killed porcupines, only 20 percent are good enough to use. They are washed twice, dried, barb is clipped off. Matched pairs are cut to length, a sharpened pin needs to be pushed through to accept a head pin, beads are added and then a loop is hand formed so it can be attached to the ring and earring wires. It is a long process. Thanks for asking
These auctions will end when the last of my 8 listed end. I will be offering again next fall. Right now the shipping, being retired, is killing me and hurting our finances for me and my wife. Thanks for all the support, you have been great.
A dear friend ask me to make a beaded crucifix. I am in design process as I text you. For those who like my bead work, with my wife's suggestion, I will be posting them soon for Lent/Easter. Will be posting within a week, take a peek if interested.
