MEMENTO VITAE : Remembering a Life

Avideo I made of my Memento Vitae



The "Memento Vitae" is my answer to our human need to keep who or what we love close to us. Each "Memento Vitae" has a decorative screw head that can be removed to add dry flower petals, ashes of the beloved or beach sand from a honeymoon.
A drop of glue on the threads seals a moment forever. 

Each of these is entirely hand-made by me from various combinations of 22k gold, silver, keum-boo, or brass. Particular gems such as birth stones may be requested or gems of your own can be incorporated. Like our own memories, each vessel is unique.               www.vwdjewelry.com
