Description
The Catacomb Collection
A one-of-a-kind jewelry collection inspired by European catacombs and ossuaries. This collection has been designed from an actual human skull and bones that have been carefully scanned and prepared for 3D printing and casting with the highest detail possible. A perfect memento mori keepsake, or gift for Halloween, Valentine's Day, or Birthday gift for someone with an appreciation for dark gothic elegance.
About the material finishes:
◼️ Polished STEEL has a rough, aged appearance (even after polishing). It is 3D printed using a binder jetting process and is later infused with bronze, creating a material that is 60% steel and 40% bronze and can range in color from a silver gray to reddish bronze.
◼️ Plated STEEL has a more shiny, smooth appearance, but is still rougher than cast metals like silver. Just make sure you don't have any nickel allergies.
◼️ BRASS, BRONZE, GOLD, and SILVER are first 3D printed in a high detail cast-able wax, and then cast using a traditional lost wax process. Because of this, these metals are smoother and more detailed than the STEEL.
NOTE: I also offer a custom patina finish and hand polishing in my Etsy shop over at mechanicalwhispers.etsy.com
