Jewelry - Silver/Gold/Pendants/Rings/Bracelets

[tenuin]

I had this pendant made by a local goldsmith. Its a Roman denarii from ca. 180 a.d., struck with the face of emperor Marcus Aurelius on the front and an altar, eagle and the inscription CONSECRATIO on the reverse.

About four and a half years ago, I had surgery to reattach my quad tendon to my knee after a catastrophic rupture. I forgot to remove my bracelet beforehand, and when they were prepping me for surgery, they did not have a screwdriver small enough to remove it. They told me they would have to cut it off. I said there was no way that was happening, so they ended up wrapping tape around it.

What I did not realize at the time is that metal jewelry can be a problem during surgery. They use electric tools to control bleeding, and the current is supposed to flow safely through your body to a grounding pad. Oh well, who knew? obviously not the dumb Home Builder/GC

I have not removed this bracelet well over five years…

@Kasi ty debating this ring or the Courts & Hackett Reptilian ring

[Mizmazzle]

@Anesthetist had to look that one up. Reptile ring looks pretty sick!

@Anesthetist

They got some cool stuff

…and one of my favourite ring finger rings

[Anesthetist]

@Kasi my wife likes their pieces. I visited their retail spot in Nashville and a lot of their stuff is cool but IMO they arent at the GAH level. Case in point, their money clips are just medallions welded onto a generic clip. Just felt a little underwhelmed.

@goosehd def looks like an index or pointer ring, that sucker is thick! I like the BWL piece. I had a little collection back in the day before selling it off for GoodArt. I think we still have one of his nature pendants that I gave to Dar years ago.

@Anesthetist old king baby studio was pretty good.

Regarding Courts & Hackett, I have had the Keith’s skull ring in my cart, many, many times…I need to just buy the damn thing. I have wanted it for years and kept putting it off. Seeing @ARNC ring with the blue sapphire’s has put me on the verge of buying one for a while now.

[ARNC]

@goosehd mine is from Stephen Einhorn (as I think you know but this will save others having to trawl the forum). I have no experience of Courts & Hackett, but SE are definitely approaching things from a different angle to say TGF. A bit more of a classic/fine jewellery approach rather than naked rock’n’roll but they definitely have a thing for skulls. SE do a lot of film work too, so it’s possible you’ve seen their work on screen without knowing it.

@ARNC @gazza61 @Heritage_Guy thank you all, that is, I think…

Beautiful inspiration!

[gazza61]

@goosehd I know this inspiration always ends up costing me

[gazza61]

recieved my ring today

[indigostiff]

And now there is two!

[ARNC]

This has been under wraps for a couple of weeks but now I can share this (and start wearing it). I wanted something with a bit of bite to remember my time with the MRMF and this seemed to fit the bill.

It fits slightly smaller than the skull, so in the post mad Red era it’s likely to be used mainly in cooler seasons when my fingers shrink.
