I'm a taxidermist and a jeweler, and here are some really fun pieces I have going out today. This is my honey bee vial pendant. It contains a naturally deceased honey bee specimen that is suspended in liquid with gold leaf flake. And I actually have two of these going out today, so there must be something in the air. Then I have one of my earthworm charms that I sculpted by hand in wax and cast in bronze. This is how it attaches to a chain. And I have one of my sea turtle eye pendants. This is a replica of a hawksbill sea turtle eye, just like the ones that are used in taxidermy mounts to replace the real eyeballs. And this one is set in sterling silver. My primary business is making memorial jewelry, so I'm absolutely delighted anytime I get an order for something that I made just for the love of the game.
