Description

Low Bush Cranberry Dyed and Polished Moose Antler; Garnet; Herkimer Diamonds; 14/20 Yellow Gold Beads and wire wrapped headpins; Sterling Silver welded jump rings; and 14/20 Rose Gold Lever Back ear wires.

Each fall growing up in rural Alaska, picking berries is a big part of the summer and fall activities. Lowbush cranberries ripen as the first frost comes in late August or early September. This pair reminded me of the first frost and picking ripe lowbush cranberries for cranberry sauce to eat with our meat.

Silver Hand Artist Ramy Brooks creating authentic handmade Alaska Native Art in Alaska, each piece is unique and comes with the Silver Hand Tag to verify its authenticity. Ramy grew up locally on the Yukon River between fish camp, the village of Rampart, and Fairbanks. Ramy’s work reflects his Athabascan and Yupik heritage, experiences growing up in a rural environment, subsistence lifestyle, and his love of the outdoors. Inspirations come from the wildlife, the wilderness, and the importance of their role in Alaska Native culture like fishing, smoked salmon, hunting, and berry picking. Ramy uses a combination of natural dyes (blueberries, cranberries, alder bark, etc.) and inks to highlight his work. Antlers are cut and sanded by hand, engraved, dyed, polished, and then riveted with copper and/or silver. The jewelry is a mix of traditional and contemporary artwork that allows Ramy to share his love for his heritage and the beauty he has experienced in his many adventures throughout Alaska.
