Skull and Crossed Bones necklace by Justine Austen



























Skull and Crossed Bones necklace in sterling silver by Justine Austen
was $176
now $140.80 thanks to our Halloween Special online



Justine Austen graduated from Gold & Silversmithing with honours from Monash University in 1998 and attained a fellowship from the gemmological Association of Australia in 2004. Working as a contemporary jeweller and miniature sculpture artist Justine creates exhibition pieces, commissions and a number of limited production ranges sold through various galleries nationally. Balancing somewhere between fine art and kitsch Justine’s creations seem quirky, play-full, absurd and offbeat. The transformation of somewhat random objects and materials into new works dictates the technique, depending on the piece and the envisioned outcome. Her style is graphic, using a simple and strong visual, icongraphic language that she has developed drawing on historical and modern elements and references.

Homo Sapien skull by Dan McGill



























Homo Sapien bronze desk weight by Dan McGill - Available in-store or online at http://www.lordcoconut.com/shop/homo-sapien-skull/


Dan McGill has been working in jewellery trade in Melbourne since 1991 and has been running his own business for 12 years. The purchase of some antiquated casting equipment from a retired jeweller several years ago has given him full control over every stage of the creative process from the chaos of molten metal to the finished piece. This independence, desire for excellence and dedication to his craft has led to a distict style which can only be described as a work by Dan McGill.
