Love, on the other end of the natural spectrum, seems much more concerned with the dead: chains topped with molds of deer teeth in 18 carat gold, bird claws (sexier than you'd think) in silver and gold, birds' heads, and scorpion rings. Growing up amongst a family of doctors—with a surgeon father, psychiatrist mother, and dentist grandfather—her fascination with life, decay, and regeneration came as a birthright. Her first pieces started as experiments. "I got human teeth from my mom because she has a medical license," explains Love who opted for the more feminine deer variety after finding the animal's jaw in a novelty store. "The deer are bizarre but not cannibalistic, daintier." www.pamelalovenyc.com
