A doctored design equals surgical jewelry
Do we think that two jobs are better than one?Depends. In the case of the waitress/cab driver, not really. But where this particular jewelry designer is concerned? Definitely. Mike Crovetti may be the only orthopedic surgeon in the world to also make the jump to jewelry designer, and it seems his second job is paying off.
Crovetti was using metal reconstructive plates to mend bones when he noticed that the bendable material would also make a great ring. He began wearing it, and after several where-did-you-get-that requests, decided to take his fortuitous discovery more seriously. Hence, Skeletal Metal was born. Crovetti's line includes not only rings, but necklaces, earrings and bracelets in both masculine and feminine designs. And due to its unique creation process and individual significance (this metal might be holding your elbow, knee or ankle together) for the person wearing it, Skeletal Metal has become a popular choice among extreme athletes and sports enthusiasts alike.
Make no bones about it ... this jewelry is unique (to say the least).

A friend had a stent put into an artery last year and in researching that I was impressed with its jewel-like nature. It's a joy to see I'm not alone in appreciating the style and workmanship of these pieces...El
