… and its made out of solid gold! Since our sterling silver dino necklaces are so popular, we decided to ask artist Amy Ambroult to make one out of something slightly more precious… 14 Karats of it. Here’s a little blurb from her blog about her necklace-making process:

“The success of those dinosaurs at TLC has turned my workshop into somewhat of a dino factory as of late. They start off on a sheet of paper and are then glued onto silver sheet. Once the glue has set, it’s time to break out the jewelers saw.”

Amy can also turn her sheets of 14K gold into our other 2 dino necklace designs: T-Rex and Triceratops. These prehistoric beauties are only available through Turtle Love Co.

We just got back from a field trip to the New England Products Trade Show where we saw Chaya Caron! She was all aglow and told us about an article the Portland Press Herald just wrote about the show (but it was mostly about her).

She has an innovative design process using recycled sterling silver to create “ethically sourced jewelry” out of her studio in South Portland.
