"Trapezoid, Uncluttered Form"
Gate to the Sky, sodalite dangle earrings has a very dark blue stone and matted silver setting, as pictured. The Gate to the Sky ring which I also bought has the same shape setting, colored stone and silver finish. I bought both jewelry items to match a necklace that has small sodalite stones and white crystal. The earrings and ring sodalite is a lot darker blue, but still look good together. Probably because the silver is not highly polished and the shape of the earrings is simple and has a refined, subtle appearance. The stone has a smooth, mirror like finish. The earrings are very pleasing to the eye...dangle, definitely hang down, but not so long as to be garish. Solid, well made. Happy with purchase.

"Dragon Master"
I have been remiss in not commenting earlier. I am elderly and struggle with computers. Forgive me. However, I must congratulate you on the rendering of these exquisite silver mythological, magical beasts. I am a devotee of dragonkind. They would be pleased at your likeness. In gratitude, Dr. Melissa

"Perfect size and color"
My initial reaction upon seeing this pendant was okay... its cute. I liked it but wasnt overly impressed by it because I considered it small. I tend to prefer bigger pieces. However, this has since become one my all time favorite necklaces! Its size is perfect for layering with other necklaces and the color of the stone is very eye catching. I find it rather calming to wear. Will definitely buy from the artist again.
