Impression Pendants use found textures in the physical world as jewelry molds. They are made by creating impressions from textures found around the world from historically and culturally significant landmarks and objects. The result is a modern fossil captured in precious metal.

The Chelsea Hotel was an infamous hotel that was home to many writers, artists, actors and musicians. This impression is from the NYC historical landmark signage where faded signatures of Sam Shepard, Sid Vicious, Patti Smith, and others can still be seen.

Other famous names that dwelled here: Mark Twain, Allen Ginsberg, Arthur Miller, Jack Kerouac, Sid Vicious, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Patti Smith, Iggy Pop, Bob Dylan, Sam Shepard, Stanley Kubrick, Claes Oldenburg...

Each pendant is individually hand-sculpted and hand-fired with recycled Japanese fine silver (999FS). This fine silver has been specially formulated to be more durable than typical fine silvers. Like all fine jewelry, handle with care.

Silver naturally oxidizes when exposed to the elements and will require occasional cleaning. Look for silver polishes, solutions, or cloths appropriate to remove tarnish at most hardware or specialty craft stores. Avoid exposing silver to household chemicals when cleaning with bleach or ammonia, or when swimming in chlorinated water.
