We source our metals in a manner thats eco-friendly and sustainable. From domestic U.S. sources where possible and from certified DRC-Conflict Free mines where impracticle. All finishes are nickel free excepting 14k whiite gold, which is plated with rhodium in order to prevent reaction.
My process starts with curating museum collections to find interesting pieces of jewelry and art to recreate.
I digitalize original pieces into exact 3d models. My careful replicas are then 3d printed in wax.
I use lost wax casting in order to fabricate a ring in metal. It's a technique with a history dating back at least 6500 years. All items are cast in precious metal, stamped and hand-finished here in the USA.
Brass and silver pieces are usually stocked and ship in 1-3 days.
Gold jewelry is usually cast to order and ships in 2-3 weeks.
