Sun Circlet & Apis Necklace
Cher commissioned me to make the Egyptian Apis Bull necklace because she was born under the astrological sign of Taurus. She also named her record label Apis. As I do, Cher has a strong affinity for the power of Egyptian sacred art.
Dark Horse Necklace
George Harrison was one of my greatest joys to make custom pieces for. The Dark Horse pulls the Hindu deity Siva’s chariot, which is the logo for George’s records. On the reverse side are symbols of the major religions of the world.
Sacred Muse Necklace
A lyre, symbol of Orpheus the Greek god of music, was chosen for Bob Dylan’s necklace. On the reverse side is a white swan, representing the sacred muse. On the lyre harp is the sign of Bob’s astrological planet, Mercury.
Alchemical Eagle Necklace
Joni Mitchell and I designed this necklace together incorporating her aquamarine stone. The symbol of the double-headed eagle was chosen representing the philosopher’s stone. This necklace is featured in the film, The Last Waltz.
