A Memento Mori necklace of interlocking white gold skeletal links with fabricated hinges and joints.
The wreath is fashioned from 24, 18 and 14karat white, green, red, royal and yellow golds. Bezel set with a dramatic 2.55ct Australian Black Fire Opal. The inspiration for this necklace was a desire to create a primal tribute to all sentient beings and our shared brief yet significant existence. The narrative symbolism of the transitory beauty in the spring floral wreath and the ominous bookends that frame our existence should not be lost on anyone who appreciates this design.
"Epiphany" necklace
A highly sculptural, three dimensional, anatomical skeletal necklace in the artist's Memento Mori Series. Fabricated in 14kt Palladium white gold the skeleton's torso encases an anatomically accurate bas' relief carving of the human torso in natural, undyed Ox-Blood Coral along with a three-dimensional heart carved out of Rubellite Tourmaline. The arms are cleverly attached to the shoulder bones with hidden ball-and-socket joinery. A life-long fascination with the figure and anatomy led to this creation and there is an obvious influence from Edvard Munch's "The Scream" in the pose.
"Memento Mori - Tribute to a Genius" ring
A unique hand made 'Memento Mori' ring in 18 karat yellow gold. Cleverly inlaid with a three-dimensional bas' relief carving of the human brain carved in Australian Fire Opal by the Gem Carver Sean Davis. The ring is hand chased and engraved with anatomical precision.
Satin finished.
