In 1995 Silver Wings was established by Jimmy and Cheryl Jones. Their mutual love of art, rock hounding, and adventure led to a new part time business in silver jewelry fabrication and lapidary work.
During a visit to the desert southwest, they toured several galleries and were fascinated by some of the large kinetic metal sculptures they saw. Knowledge from some prior hobbies helped fuel the couple's desire to create larger artworks incorporating elements of motion. Cheryl had recently inherited an array of welding equipment which provided an ideal opportunity for them to experment and progress from jewelry to larger indoor and outdoor mobile sculptures. In 1998, Silver Wings successfully evolved into a full time metal sculpting business.
