5 out of 5 starsBeautiful heart, unique design, looks wonderful in black. Great weight and quality. Happy with communication and time to ship (3 weeks from Canada to Australia, which would have been great even pre covid).

...The Cure for the Common Gold
Lost Apostle, The Cure for the Common Gold...
Life's a journey, no mistaking that. The whistle-stop tour. The all-inclusive no-brainer. The plod. The First Class, high-flying, jet-setting 5 star whirlwind.
And then there's the scenic route.
Lost Apostle, take a bow.
Both independently and as a team, Nadya and James - the married couple behind Lost Apostle - have trod the path less travelled, torn up rule books and given conformity a right old pair of adversaries. Lost Apostle jewelry is a reflection of this approach to life, and those smiles are heartfelt - it's fun looking Goliath in the eye in and telling him his flies are undone.
Every piece of Lost Apostle jewelry is made entirely by hand, and our logo on all our jewelry is your guarantee that our very best has gone into everything we make. James' skill as a trained silversmith and Nadya's background in the Fine Arts lend a detail to their bronzes that challenges the bounds of what jewelry can be, and detail for Lost Apostle is everything. From the tiny feathers in an angel wing pendant to the anatomical accuracy of their hearts and skulls - making something to the best of their abilities creates jewelry that can be worn and enjoyed in the knowledge that 110% has been poured into it.
Re-invigorating a 6,000 year old method called the Lost Wax process, each piece of Lost Apostle jewelry is a little reminder that although our time may be fleeting on this mortal coil, bronze has been - and will be - around for millennia. Just as the beautiful 1,500 year old bronze bracelet that James un-earthed in Cambodia may have been worn by an ancient Khmer king, so might a Lost Apostle skull be rediscovered many generations from now, every bit as splendid as the day it was first worn. Bronze is a beautiful metal to work with - strong, enduring, resonant. Your Lost Apostle jewelry will stand the test of time and they'll be fighting over it when you're pushing up the daisies.
Nature, anatomy, the Space Between your Ears - they're all inspirations. Soak it all up, wring it all out, and see what you're left with. And it if looks good, cast it in bronze. At Lost Apostle, it's the behind-the-scenes stuff that inspires us as much as anything - the spiritual laundry on the the physical washing line. Other than that, we think skulls are badass. Let her rip, 'tater chip.
Lost Apostle. How it all began? It's a long story. It's a good one too. It involves market stalls, a bag of peanuts and Nadya-shaped targets before James even knew her name.
No plans for a bronze peanut though. Yet.

Shop policies
Hi one and all and welcome to Lost Apostle.
Spending the larger part of my twenties in Asia taught me many things, some practical, some less so, but none more creatively satisfying than silversmithing. Pulling up a bench to watch a silversmith make the ring I had designed, I asked him whether he could show me the ropes so I could have a go myself. The next day he'd cobbled a desk together and furnished it with the traditional tools used in his trade. A few un-hurried explanations later and I was let loose with his well-worn hand made files, 150 year old hammers and a prehistoric foot-bellows...8 hours later I'd made my first ring and 9 hours later I'd sold it. I ended up working at that bench for years. And although I got a bit quicker at making the rings, the ancient techniques I learnt and used never changed.
It turns out that casting jewelry also had a long and rich tradition too. Silver prices went up, and up, and then up some more, and it wasn't long before I was looking for a different medium with which to cast. Enter Bronze. What a find. Silver is a relatively soft metal, which gave me the opportunity to hammer the hell out of it with a couple of rolled-up sleeves and a blowtorch. Bronze is an altogether tougher prospect, no way you're manhandling that into anything resembling, well, anything really. It's the perfect choice for casting jewelry (just ask the Khmer from the Angkor Period in Cambodia - they were using the stuff for their rings and bracelets 3,500 years ago), as it expands when it cools and in doing so gets into all the tiny details of the mould. It's called the Lost Wax process, it's been around for about five thousand years, and it's how each and every piece of Lost Apostle jewelry gets made.
Each handmade piece of Lost Apostle bronze has been brought to you by an ancient tradition, and one which we are proud to uphold. I should point out that bronze, if left to its own devices, will tarnish and darken within a few days. While this is by no means a bad thing, we decided to protect the mirror-polished finish by using a special technique - your Lost Apostle jewelry will maintain it's beautiful shine for years.
Each piece comes beautifully packaged in a Lost Apostle ultra-suede pouch, and if you're purchasing a pendant on leather, then a rather snazzy and completely original Lost Apostle bronze clasp is also included with simple fitting instructions.
Thanks again for stopping by,
Best wishes,
James and Nadya
