Unusual commissioned keepsakes
Turn a personally supplied tooth into a bespoke ring
Creature's Virtue / Melanie Merenda
Creature's Virtue makes rings and necklaces around customer-supplied teeth, including a two-tooth ring and gemstone-accented settings. Its dedicated custom-tooth consultation invites design ideas and photographs before the maker develops a piece. This is personal memento jewelry made to order, not an on-site activity.
