Unlike mass-produced jewellery, each of our crow pendants is hand-carved in wax by our designer before being moulded and cast in solid precious metals. This traditional technique allows us to create intricate, lifelike details that truly capture the spirit of the crow.
The Crafting Process:
Hand-Carving in Wax – Each pendant begins as a delicate wax sculpture, carefully shaped by hand to bring out the natural beauty of the crow. This stage allows for organic textures and intricate details that machine-made jewellery simply can’t replicate.
🔥 Moulding & Casting – Once the design is perfected, it is moulded and cast in solid sterling silver or 9ct gold, preserving every fine detail.
✨ Finishing Touches – Each piece is hand-polished, ensuring a smooth yet detailed finish that enhances the natural form of the crow.
This slow, intentional craftsmanship results in a pendant that feels truly unique—a piece of wearable art with soul and character.
