Design Notes:

I have wanted to design a line of jewelry using the Mexican treat for Dia de los Muertos, sugar skulls.

So the way I approached it was to build anatomically correct skulls, and then apply the decoration to

the skull as if I was applying a sugar applique. This skull features flowers around the eyes and

elsewhere on the skull, a scalloped heart around the nose and a butterfly on the forhead. Florid

ornaments tie all of the sugar elements together.

We design each piece and build a 3d master model. We 3d print each individual wax, we do pull our waxes from a mold, so each piece has the original detail we built in the master mode. We created the artwork, it is exclusively for our use and it is not available anywhere else.

We do everything here in our studio. Once the wax is 3d printed, it is sprued and invested, cast in metal, finished and set. Each item is made to order and will take 2 weeks to 30 days to finish and send out.
