Would a jeweler work with human bone?

I think so. I would try to find an artist (rather than the average jeweler) who is into the idea. I have a friend who’s an art student that makes neckolace charms with capped gold teeth, they look cool. If you’re at all crafty you buy a Dremel and make the stuff yourself. The Dremel has an engraving attachment that you could do something neato with.

How did you aquire this collection of caps?

do you know the person whos teeth these were? i would find the relatives of the person and ask if i could do it or not. they may still be grieving. also, is the gold really yours, or does it belong to the dead person and therefore everything thats his/hers goes to his/hers relatives?

Money has already changed hands so ownership is not a matter of contention. It’s the mindset or practical sensibilities of your average jeweler/goldsmith I’m wondering about. Again I don’t want to remove the teeth from the gold, I just need them fixed.

I’m lost, this question is creepy.
