With his wings wide open for maximum aerodynamics, this gorgeous soaring crow pendant measures 2-3/4 inches from wingtip to wingtip and about 1-1/2 inch from beak to tail feathers.
There are hanging holes at the very tip of each wing. So you might choose to hang him as a pendant soaring upward or downward. Or, maybe you'll choose to hang him from one wing - as though he were flying across your jewelry.

Old Ravens Meet Fine Art Print Artist Trading Cards - Signed by the Artist
More Crows & Ravens
More Wall Art
Frame this wonderful print and hang it on your wall. Or, collect it. Or, use it as a bookmark; give it as a gift. Whatever you choose to do with it, we're sure it will be treasured for years to come.
This is a fine art print of an original painting from our new friend, Alison Fennell. She is a truly gentle and talented soul who agreed to print these just for SilverCrow.
Alison's own description of this fine image of glorious blackbirds:
Plush in their iridescent blue and black finery these two old boys greet each other with a bow and a caw!
These are standard ATCs (2-1/2 by 3-5/8 inches), printed with archival ink on archival fine art paper. At first glance, the image appears to be an original watercolor!
The artist has signed each one of these individually and, of course, we must keep one for ourselves.

Mini Soaring Bird Story Box Necklace on Lovely Blue Rosary Chain

More Birds of All Kinds
We, of course, like to think of the bird in this story as a crow, but, alas, it might just be almost any bird. But one thing we do know - it flies upward in exhilaration against a deep blue sky. From Classic Hardware (as seen on Sex and the City, MTV, CMT and more), we're delighted to offer this wonderful pendant on a gorgeous pale Montana blue crystal rosary chain. Our bird's story is encased in resin within the silvery box.
The pendant measures 3/4 inch by 1inch and hangs from a 16 inch rosary chain. It is designed to insure that your pendant lies flat, and is closed with a lobster claw clasp. Elegant, yet casual, this lovely necklace will work with gowns or jeans - and, we're sure this fantastic necklace will delight the wearer.

Sweet Bird Oval Nicho
More Nichos
How could we not fall in love with this beautiful nicho? Two crossed feathers at the bottom of the oval seem to protect the contents inside. Atop the oval is a flying bird, which is made of several pieces, giving it a unique sense of depth.
As with all of SilverCrow's nichos, our Sweet Bird Nicho is made in Mexico by traditional tin artisans. The detail is amazing and the workmanship is exceptional.
The entire piece measures 7-3/8 inches high by about 5-3/4 inches wide. The niche itself is really a rectangle with an oval glass front. The niche opens from the back with a spiral clasp - a bit different from some of our other clasps. The niche measures 3-1/4 inches high by 2-1/2 inches wide and not quite 7/8 inch deep. The oval is 2-7/8 inches high by almost 2 inches wide.
Because these are handmade, please allow for variation.

Reversible Hand-Made Crow & Jack-O'Lantern Ornament (Or, Pendant if You're Brave)
More Ornaments
We expect that this ornery crow has settled himself upon another Jack-o'Lantern's handle. But we can't be sure, of course! This clever ornament was made by hand and features both a crow on one side and a happy jack on the the other!
The entire piece measures 2 inches square. The hanging loop adds another 1/8 inch on top. This makes a great ornament for your Hallowe'en feather tree, or a great door hanger on a doll house for the spooky holiday!
Those brave enough for such a large piece might also consider wearing it as a reversible pendant - so we're including an extra jump ring - just in case!
We're showing two ornaments so that you might see the front and back.
The ornament itself is made of glass and metal, so please be careful with it. Clean it with a soft cloth and please don't immerse it.

Double-Sided Golden Crow (or Swallow) Dresdens - Sheet of 15
More Dresdens (Including These in Silver & Black)
These highly embossed shiny gold metallic Dresden crows are sure to be a favorite of crow and corvid fans. Now, we think these might really be swallows, but we had these especially made for us because of the crow resemblance.
Long used for embellishing ornaments and glued to other paper scraps and decoupage projects, these wonderful motifs are even more special because they are golden - one of the original types of Dresdens from the early days.
The embossing on these reliefs is superb, as is the cutting. These are new but are made in the same fashion as they have been for many, many decades! Each bird measures about 3 by 2-1/8 inches.

So, now Aesop's fable of the Fox and the Crow has turned full circle. Who is complimenting whom? Why is the fox in the tree. We knew it would change somehow!
The original tale has the crow in the tree enjoying a nice chunk of cheese that he stole from a farmer's windowsill. The foxy fox flatters the crow into thinking she has a beautiful singing voice. The crow, enamoured with the idea, decides to sing and drops the cheese to the ground for the fox.
So, what must the crow have said to change the situation? We can hardly guess!?
Artist/Photographer Voller Ernst is responsible for this charming and funny image.

Artist Kate Dawidziak is the artist who created this gorgeous note card featuring ravens or crows along with a lovely fairy with magnificent black wings. She is overlooking the water from atop a rocky precipice. Either snow or falling stars are around her as she thoughtfully contemplates.
The image on the front of the card is echoed mistily inside the card as well, muted enough for you to inscribe your message.
The card is accompanied by an illustrated envelope. But, for those of you who prefer your message to be sent incognito, we are adding, at no extra charge, a kraft "paper bag" style envelope just in that case.
This card was made using earth-friendly materials, with a minimum of 50 % post consumer recycled paper. The accompanying printed envelop is mixed-eco paper which may include sugarcane, kenaf, bamboo and recycled wood pulp. All printing is with soy based inks. The extra kraft envelope is made of recycled paper as well.

He is a delightfully old-fashioned fellow that will add to any décor, be it country, modern, Mexican or contemporary - especially for blackbird, raven and crow lovers!

Now, we have to admit that we decided to sell this set of marbles mainly because they were named Raven. The mostly opaque black stones are swirled with white, a bit of grey or silver and some yellow. In fact, each of the marbles has been swirled individually so, no two appear to be alike. Some have little or no yellow at all.
Each of the glass marbles is more beautiful than the next. The entire mesh net bag is filled with 24 mibs and one 1-inch shooter. Two display rings are also included.

Smashed Penny - SilverCrow
More Smashed Pennies and other Pocket Tokens
Coins like these have many names, but our favorite is smashed pennies, aka elongated pennies and pressed pennies. The first elongated penny was created for the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus during 1892-1893. There are some who believe that there were such coins produced earlier, but the experts have singled this celebration as the beginning.
A smashed penny is is made by forcing a penny (or other coin) through two steel rollers. There is an engraving on one of the rollers (sometimes both sides). A crank (mechanical or electronic) forces the coin through the rollers and squeezes it with extreme pressure. This smashes the coin from round to ...you guessed it...elongated. The pressure pushes the engraving into the penny at the same time it is smashing it.
We've been collecting these since we were children, and now our grandchildren collect them, too. Made from shiny pre-1983 pennies, there is a higher copper content than if created with today's pennies.
This special little penny will hopefully bring you luck (of course, we cannot promise that it will, but we'll hope for you, too!) The penny features a dotted border, and a gorgeous landing crow. At the bottom in tiny letters, it reads SilverCrowCreations.com. We had this made just for us. The letters are large enough to read, but small enough to appear as decoration should you choose to create a charm or pendant from our penny.
Because they are smashed in the process of impressing the message, these souvenir pennies are super thin, yet sturdy. The new oval shape measures about 1-5/16 long and about 13/16 wide. This makes a wonderful keepsake for your wallet or pocket.

Nicho with Crows Holding a Heart
This charming traditional nicho is very special to us. Although we are not really sure what type of birds they are, we like to think that they are crows or ravens that are perched atop the niche. The two birds are seemingly in flight and are holding tight onto the heart between them.
The shadow box opens from the front with a traditional curled closure. This would be just right as wedding or anniversary present - just add the couple's picture to the inside of the door of the niche. Of course, the niche's depth allows for additional items to be added - perhaps a miniaturized version of their wedding invitation, a small candle or milagros. We also like it for a baptism or other baby memory box as the parents hold their true heart.
The entire piece measures 8-1/4 inches high by a touch over 7 inches wide. The niche is 3-1/4 inches high by 2-1/4 inches wide and just about 1/2 inch deep. Each of these wonderful pieces is created by hand by a traditional artisan with centuries of tradition behind the artist. So, each will show the individual flavor of that artist, while holding true to this design.

His name is mentioned amongst a group of 18th and 19th century martyrs, but there is no true evidence that he really walked this earth. Despite this lack of substantiation, he retains many devotees and is considered the patron of those who must deliver on time, against procrastination and, newly for e-commerce and other computer communications.

In the USA, we're taught as babies to never stick anything inside our ears. Elsewhere in this wide world, the advice is quite the opposite. Ear cleaners such as these cute little crow cleaners are sold worldwide for cleanliness - we've even seen them in a shop at Paris' Charles de Gaulle International Airport.
Mimikaki are the traditional ear cleaners of Japan, a personal healthcare tool with a scoop-like end used for getting the wax out of the ears. Some of these are quite elegant, some are very Bauhaus and others are cute - like ours - which features a yatagarasu - a lucky crow with three legs.
In Japanese mythology, the appearance of a raven or crow with three legs is evidence of divine intervention into human affairs. There is some controversy over the crow's gender, appearance and size. But there is very little dissention regarding the fact that s/he is lucky for the beholder.
The stick measures 4-3/4 inches long.

Icon Style Holy Cards - St Francis of Assisi

Milagros & Medals
We were quite taken with the icon-style print of Saint Francis that was used for this very special holy card. Saint Francis lived from 1182 through 1226 and is the founder of the Franciscan Order. He is one of the most famous and beloved saints of the Catholic Church. He renounced worldly wealth, preaching the importance of simplicity and poverty based on the ideals of the Gospel. He was known for his love of nature and animals, especially birds.
These lovely holy cards are a bit lighter weight than some others we offer, but the printing is absolutely outstanding. They are a convenient size for use as gifts or bookmarks - measuring 3-1/8 by 4-5/8 inches on heavy cream-colored paper. The back is blank except for a faint colophon at the bottom, leaving plenty of room for custom imprinting with your own message, or a place to write a note to a friend.

Art Postcard - Elegy to the Spanish Republic # 34
More Spanish & Latin
Robert Motherwell was an American abstract expressionist painter and printmaker. Although his major works are paintings, he is also quite well known for his philosophical writings, having been a philosopher as well as an artist. Connecting the mind to the canvas was his passion.
The Elegy for the Spanish Republic # 34 is one of the many pieces in the series by the same name, considered to be his most significant work. The stark black against the washed colors creates visual impact.
These cards were sent to us in error, but we decided to keep them, as the black paint reminded us of the silhouettes of crows in flight. We have no way of knowing if this was his intention, but we decided to interpret his artwork in this manner as it was our first impression. As crows are known in many cultures to be protectors, we hope the Spanish Republic willing to accept our interpretation.

Vintage Embossed Die Cut Chromolithograph Scraps - Animal Wannabes
More Scraps, Dresdens & Die Cuts
From the mid-20th century, super cute scraps feature animals in professions and activities normally reserved for their human friends. There are bears, birds, monkeys and more bowling, juggling, delivering the mail and playing the banjo. Artists, musicians and waiters and more, offer their more humorous side for inclusion in your artworks. We're not sure whether we wannabe the animals or if they wannabe human.
As with many of the scraps and die cuts made in the 20th century, these are children in adult situations. The advent of space exploration in the 1950s and 1960s, led to many products such as these. Rather than intricately die cut motifs, these are nicely expressed vignettes that are die cut into shapes - probably meant for découpage. We're particularly attracted to the colors in this production - there is a special tone that makes the scraps seem older than they even really are!
The scrap relief sheet is approximately 9 inches by 7 inches, ready for you to clip and use in your artwork. And each sheet is lightly embossed to accent. The shapes make these perfect for accenting boxes, pencil cups or other such items.

Nicho Shrine with Birds
Just like our Bird Heart Nicho, this traditional nicho is very special to us. Although we are not really sure what type of birds they are, we like to think that they are crows or ravens that are perched on either side of the traditional shrine window, which opens from the front.
Although there is a cross at the top, a pair of tin snips or hefty scissors will cut it off to remove the religious aspect of this little shrine.
This nicho measures 7-3/4 from bird from bird. From the top to the bottom it measures 7 inches. The niche is 3-1/2 inches high by 2-1/2 inches. It is about 3/4 inch deep
The niche's depth allows for pictures, sentimental items and mementos to be added - perhaps a miniaturized version of a special letter, a small candle a ticket, or, of course, some milagros.

Poe Illustrated: Art by Doré, Dulac, Rackham and Others
In his brief and troubled life, Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) was as haunted by tragedy and loss as he was plagued by poverty, illness and alcoholism. Poe's personal misfortunes doubtless influenced the dark romanticism of his work. Obsessed with death, decay and the madness, he created compelling narratives of characters trapped in perverse situations. The profound influence of his stories and poetry extends not only to world literature but also to the visual arts.
This outstanding collection, selected and edited by Jeff A Menges, features scores of memorable moments from Poe's writings recaptured in gripping images of eerie beauty by the author's most acclaimed interpreters.
More than 100 illustrations, reproduced in brilliant color and crisp black-and-white, include hard-to-find images from private collections as well as those from sought-after rare editions. Poe Illustrated features scenes from such popular tales as The Fall of the Hose of User, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Gold-Bug, The Black Cat and The Cask of Amontillado as well as The Bells and other poems. Spanning a fifty-year period, they range from Édouard Manet's 1875 lithographs for a French edition of The Raven to the 1935 illustrations of Arthur Rackham for The Tell-Tale Heart and other stories. Additional contributors include Arthur E Becher, W Heath Robinson, Byam Shaw and Harry Clarke, among others. The editor provides an informative overview, as well as brief introductions to each of the artists and captions for their images.
The authors start by stressing the balance of complementary opposites—left brain/right brain, challenge/comfort, practicality/the sacred—as crucial to beginning the journey. Then through guided imagery, they lead readers through subconscious realms to connect with archetypal sources of inner wisdom. This process frees the creative and healing spirit, connecting explorers with the body's instinctive intelligence, which expresses itself through the creation of art.
This wonderful softbound book measures 8-1/2 by 11 inches and has 81 pages, almost all with illustrations.

Although his home was in Italy, the Franciscan Friars brought their love for him to the New World. Many missions in Mexico and the southwest United States were created by the Franciscans.
We commissioned this lovely nicho and santo in much the same way that the original settlers did - unless they were talented enough to make retablos or santos themselves. The original versions of such religious artwork were often made for small chapels and the settlers' homes and created by itinerant artists.
Each of these is handmade of recycled wood - Mexican rejas (fruit crates) and then hand painted. The entire piece measures just about 15 inches high. Each is handmade, so please allow for some variation.

Audubon Bird Call
This original classic red finish Audubon Bird Call consists of a birchwood roller and a zinc plug. With reasonable care, and periodic re-application of rosin from the included capsule, the call will last a lifetime. By twisting this simple device, you can easily imitate the songs of many wild songbirds.
Roger Eddy and his family and friends assembled the Audubon Bird Call by hand in his living room. He created the call after seeing similar devices used in northern Italy. For over 50 years, the Audubon Bird Call has been crafted by hand in New England and is now considered the standard bird call throughout the world. Roger died in 2003, and his grandchildren proudly continue this family business.
Please consider the birds when using this call: don't use it excessively near nests and when birds are resting.
