One of the main themes in the Ladies Patches category is wings, especially angel wings. It seems like almost every depiction of angels includes a pair of wings. Some of them are small, fluffy white wings like those you see on cherubs (the little guys who usually appear on Valentine's Day cards). Then there are the longer, more formal looking wings you find on Christmas angels. The Small Angel Wings Patch Grey looks more like these wings: they're longer and look a bit more distinguished than those you'd see on cartoon angels.
Angels appear in a number of different religions. Usually their main role is as a messenger, but sometimes they're shown protecting humans. Angels or beings very similar to angels can be found in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Baha'i, and even religious like Zoroastrianism. While most pieces of art include wings on angels, in the Christian Bible, only two specific groups of angels are said to have wings: the cherubim/cherubs and the seraphim, one of the higher orders of angels. However, thanks to many artists adding wings, today when we think of angels, we think of wings, a halo, a harp, and usually a long white gown.
While most angels are shown having white wings, this patch has grey ones. In popular culture, evil angels and other beings sometimes have black wings, while good beings have white. Grey wings can mean moral ambiguity, not good or bad but somewhere in-between. If that fits you, you might want to pick these wings over pure white ones. Grey wings might also be fitting for older lady riders who have embraced their age.
