FORREST

The forrest marks the edge of mankind’s domain. Forrests are strongly symbolic of the cycle of life, from the growth of spring and the flowering of summer to the decay of autumn and the emptiness of winter. 

Our engraver has done an amazing jobe evoking the mystery and serenity of the forrest on such a small surface. His engraving is deep yet delicate. Wispy lines suggest clouds and birds floating over the broader, stronger down-sweeping curves of the pine trees.

Each piece is carved by hand and varies slightly so you know that if you choose this locket, yours will be unique.

Proudly made in Melbourne.

MAGNOLIA


Solid gold wedding ring I made for my mates Drew and Rochelle. I incorporated a 3D magnolia motif as it is Rochelle's favourite flower. I think it turned out beautifully. All the best for their wedding. xxx chb

WHALE



The Loneliest Whale in World
In 2004, The New York Times wrote an article about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem: she isn’t like any other baleen whale.

Unlike all other whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one. Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25hz, she sings at 52hz. You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And, with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by.


Just imagine that massive mammal, floating alone and singing—too big to connect with any of the beings it passes, feeling paradoxically small in the vast stretches of empty, open ocean.








The Happiest Whale in World
Not as lonely as the Baleen Whale above is Jeremy the Sperm Whale last seen circling the crafty circles of Corky Saint Clair. Jeremy has a cheeky smile that makes him a popular member of the Corky family.

BONES


Look what I made at my silversmithing class: a sterling silver crossbones necklace, which I cast from bones that I saved when I was still officially eating meat.
I also made this voodoo cannibal crucifix. This piece is a lot heavier  and feels nice to wear.

ROBOT

I remember a million years ago someone I really liked said
'Why do you keep making the same thing over and over?'

The answer my padawan is that each iteration gets better.

This is Version 5.0 of Rolly Robot. He's tinier, shinier and cuter than the last version.

Rolly Robot - sterling silver pendant available from Corky Saint Clair. $60AUD on a 50cm Italian sterling silver curb chain or $65AUD on an $80cm Italian sterling silver curb chain.
