MTO Nightshade Iridescent Convertible Fairy Wings in your choice of color
Share
The Nightshade fairy wings are from the 2018 Ethereal Collection of convertible fairy wings that can be positioned in either an 'up' or a resting 'down' position without compromising the metal with harsh bending.
This design is sort of the sister of the classic Kira wings I used to make, with their spikiness giving them a more unseelie vibe.
The wingspan from tip to tip at the widest point measures roughly 36 inches wide.
The frame is constructed of a .040" thick cut aluminum sheet that has been painted in black for the veins, and will be laminated with an iridescent film of your choice and clear vinyl.
Allow at least 8 weeks or more for production and delivery, and email me after ordering with your film color preference. The veining will be black.
Available film colors are: Clear Diamond Fire, clear Ultraviolet, clear Opal, clear Aurora, Absinthe, Dark Crystal, Poison Apple, Autumn Night, Rose Gold, Patina Green, Berry, Neon Yellow, Spiked Punch, and Satin White.
*Simple assembly required
Panels attach with included standard screw bolts and nuts. The upper screw is finished on the outer side with a domed acorn nut, which looks like a flower stamen if flowers are attached to hide the hardware.
I will leave the flowers up to the customer for the meantime, so you can match your outfit. I just use faux flowers torn off from the plastic stem & punched an 1/8" hole to go over the screw. Then, screw the acorn cap on.
The photo of only the brace shows the latest brace shape in black that comes with the wings that now has a thicker bar across the bottom for better support and will match your wing's vein color. The last closeup shows an example of the older version back brace on the back of a different set of wings so you can see how it would attach with ribbon or elastic as well as how you can decorate it with faux flowers.
You can wear your wings in resting position by removing the bottom screw if you find yourself in a packed crowd. I suggest removing it while the wings are off due to the small parts - a magnet may be helpful for catching the bolt after removal and a small wrench and / or screw driver may come in handy.
Alternatively they can now be assembled with included rubber washers to make them fully adjustable - just grab the panel you want to move and rotate it into position, no un-screwing needed!!

The wing panels can be removed for easy transport, or to change up the look by removing or swapping the antennae, upper panel, and lower panels.
They can be worn either by tucking them into the back of any very snug & sturdy bodice or corset, or by attaching your own ribbon or elastic by slipping it through the slots on the back brace.
Unfortunately due to the pandemic, I've had issues accessing the clear elastic they used to come with, however since I've increased the detail and therefore the weight slightly you may want to use something stronger than clear elastic anyway.
The frame is constructed of a .040" thick cut aluminum sheet that has been powder coated, and laminated with an iridescent film and clear vinyl.
