Constantly raising the bar.

I have been quietly working on bringing this piece into existence. It is the first one of it's kind in the world. 

I had to delve into the realm of precious stones and setters in the diamond district for weeks before finding people worth trusting. 

The Diamonds: H1S1 first quality and clarity. 0.07 carats. 
The setting : 14k gold 4 prong that is cast as part of the skull ( so no solder to fail.) The diamond setting was done by a lifetime professional. 

This tiny delicate beautiful piece is cast in pure 14k rose gold. They are cast two at a time here in NYC. I polish each one personally by hand. 

This beauty is an inch long and quarter inch wide. It weighs 1.7 grams. 

This piece comes on a matching 18 inch rose gold plated open link chain. 

Were did this piece came from? : 


I have been trying for years to get a hummingbird skull. My cat killed two one afternoon at my studio in TN. Some do gooder (beware of them) threw the little skulls away.
Years later here in the middle of gotham in a teeny apt my friend busts out a hummingbird skull. " Could you do something with this?" I was floored. I took it to one of the last casting houses in NYC and we made a mold and the silver cast was perfect.
I have been selling these steadily in gold and people are very happy with them.
