Memento Mori
One aspect of our work is the transformation of CT Scans of real animal skulls into jewelry and beautiful skull decor. Each of my sculptures is in effect a “memento mori” or remembrance of the death of the individual and of the species. Being mindful of death is of course a way to celebrate life, both of the individual and the species.
The technique of making the pendants uses a traditional lost wax process, but with the advent of 3D printing, we can now make extremely delicate and scientifically accurate models of a skull from a CT scan (just like the kind used in a hospital). Once the model is created from the scan, it can be 3D printed in wax. This wax model is then embedded in plaster, the wax is melted out and pure molten bronze, silver or gold can be poured into the mold. It is somewhat less expensive to make a silicone mold from one of the wax prints and use that to make additional wax models. For the items that are particularly popular, we make silicone molds.

5 out of 5 starsThis is so cool! Hard to find realistic dinosaur skull necklace pendants. This is the most realistic I have found and in person looks so awesome! I love it and I never take it off. The item matched the description perfectly and the seller is very nice and great communication! The quality is top notch. I would definitely buy from this seller again in the future!
