This raven skull is made of hot cast jewelers bronze. Under seven grams, it is a comfortable weight to wear without being cumbersome. Like sterling, it can easily be maintained with any metal polish. This three dimensional skull is a miniaturized duplicate of a real skull. I used the real skull to make a mold into which I cast a medium which shrinks proportionally as it cures. From that prototype casting, I made another silicone mold of the now miniaturized skull and cast a resin version that was sent off to my local foundry to be copied in bronze. This little fellow is totally three dimensional, even the bottom has the detail of the original. Just under 1-1/4" long, it is the perfect size to wear anywhere, anytime, even your boss will like it. This accurately detailed skull has a solid cranium that has been drilled from side to side to accommodate the contrasting 24" gunmetal curb chain which looks very clean and uncluttered and always keeps the skull right side up. My customers tell me that from a distance, this skull gets mistaken for a heart. People are quite surprised when they get up close and see what it actually is. This skull is also available in sterling and can be found in my shop. For size reference see the last picture of American Idol contestant Siobhan Mangus wearing this piece while performing on the show.
