Hand-carved heirlooms preserving nature's beauty in 18K gold and sterling silver

Jennifer Rutheny uses the ancient art of lost wax casting. Each piece begins as a hand-carved wax sculpture, before being cast in precious metal. Her process is a blend of artistry and precision, bringing nature's elegance into every piece.

For over two decades, Jennifer has crafted animal pendants in partnership with National Geographic's Lindblad Expeditions — jewelry born from a deep reverence for the wild.

 Her work has found its way to the wrists and hearts of women like Sarah Snook, Amy Adams, and Rosie Perez. And each month, a portion of every sale flows back to the earth: to Re:Wild, the World Wildlife Fund, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Wildlife Conservation Society.
