The Mangrove Snapper Jaw
The mangrove snapper is an abundant, lesser-known snapper commonly caught in the waters off Florida. This fish was caught by Ben Bateman in Florida’s Gulf Coast and sold to a local seafood market. Our mission is to utilize everything full circle with zero waste, so we work with Ben to clean the bones and have them sent to the Brooklyn Navy Yard on trucks carrying seafood up the coast. We take the bones to NYC jewelry district where expert mold maker, Daniel B. makes a mold for cast replica’s and the original bones are retrieved for our one-of-a-kind pieces.
