This large, gold-plated copper ring is formed with the imaginary of a scene inspired by the Abduction of Europa in Greek mythology. The scene consists of two separate plates. On the upper plate, we can see the naked female figure and the bull, which is larger in proportion. On the lower plate, which is a copper plate made by repoussage and chasing, there is a pattern resembling the crumpled skin of a bull.

The pendant belongs to the long-standing tradition of Memento mori symbols, showing a detail of a golden skull and a golden wing. These were embossed from copper plates, and the two pieces were then gilt. A purple triangular faceted amethyst is placed at the bottom right, in a silver socket. The metal parts and the gemstone are integrated into a carved black Corian base. The pendant hangs on a simple snake chain.

The central element of this necklace is a pendant with a sculptural rendering of a couple of birds. The two silver birds sit side by side on a silver and tropical wooden pole, while their long tail feathers hang deep below them. They sit next to each other, and although they look in different directions, their peacefulness and posture reflect how solid their relationship is. The pendant hangs on a necklace of 5mm turquoise beads.
