Wendy Brandes 1.48 TCW Black Diamond Taurus Bull Ring With Surprise Inside
About the Item
The Bull and Bullfighter Ring is the fourth in Wendy Brandes's seven-ring Maneater series, a collection that upends assumptions about power. Each Maneater ring features a triumphant figure on top, with a tiny man tucked away inside of the band. In this case, a 18K rose gold bull is the conqueror, presiding over a yellow gold and diamond stadium. Inside the ring, an 18K white gold matador stands in defeat, with his back to the viewer and his cape swirling around him. This intricate design took artisans many months to complete and is a true one-of-a-kind piece of wearable art -- it will never to be reproduced.

Wendy Brandes Jewelry
About the Designer: Jewelry design is Wendy Brandes’s second career. Wendy started out as a business journalist at the Wall Street Journal and CNN, later switching to pop-culture coverage during her tenure as managing editor of People magazine’s website. Her story-telling skills remain as strong as ever, but they’re now expressed in carat weight and grams of gold instead of word count. Wendy's “Fine Jewelry for Witty People" is distinguished by its stellar workmanship; warm, satin finish; hidden and symbolic details, including mechanical parts; and wry commentary on everything from history to iPhone addiction. Her award-winning 18K yellow gold collection -- featured here -- is inspired by fascinating women, and all designs are limited-edition or one-of-a-kind. Wendy has been featured in the New York Times, W Magazine, and British Vogue, and her jewelry has been spotted on Rihanna, model Bella Hadid and Britney Spears.

- Wendy Brandes 18K Yellow Gold Snake Tiara with South Sea Pearl, Diamonds, RubiesBy Wendy BrandesLocated in New York, NYTwo twisting 18K yellow gold and diamond snakes kiss in the center of this darkly romantic serpentine tiara, forming a heart that embraces a large, baroque South Sea pearl. In creating this piece, Wendy paid as much attention to function as to form: the tiara is engineered with space for hair pins that will secure it for a full day of celebration. This wearable art was created in New York City by our top-notch goldsmiths. The design is the latest addition to Wendy's snake-themed Queen of Scots Collection. That motif was inspired by Mary Queen of Scots, cousin to Elizabeth I. Elizabeth's advisors referred to Mary as "the bosom serpent" -- close to the queen of England, and dangerous.

- Wendy Brandes Onyx Skull Ring With Green Garnets and Hidden DiamondsBy Wendy BrandesLocated in New York, NYWendy has long been inspired by skulls, as artists have been for centuries. This type of jewelry is known by the Latin phrase “Memento mori” -- “remember you are mortal.” Wendy interprets it as a call to live life to its fullest. This one-of-kind piece took highly skilled artisans months to create. The onyx was hand-carved in Germany in collaboration with Wendy's goldsmith in New York City, who provided to-the-millimeter measurements. The artist hid diamonds inside the shank, behind the skull, for the ultimate in covert luxury –- a treat intended only for the owner’s eyes, or those confidantes who are let in on the secret. 18k yellow gold, satin finish. Hand-carved onyx skull...Category
