Trilobite Ring

Ok, this one isn't really a custom order from a client, but I did make it just for me! Way back in the mid 80's, when I couldn't find I trilobite pendant to buy anywhere, I decided I knew I'd have to make my own. Fortunately, my high school art teacher was a master silversmith, and we'd remained close after I graduated. She graciously invited me into her home, lent me her tools, and taught me her craft. I still have many of her tools to this day. 

Anyway, I'm a fossil nut, so several years ago when my husband and I found this actual 500 million year old fossil trilobite negative, I knew that someday I'd make something with it. It was on exhibit at The Parkersburg Art Center the summer of 2017.
