This work of art is the masterpiece of Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof - one of the greatest gemstone artists of his time, also known as “America’s Faberge”.
As a child growing up in the Canadian Wilds of the Queen Charlotte Islands, Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof began carving totem poles with the Haida Indians at the age of twelve after a hunting accident left his dominant arm paralyzed. Gordon Cross, the great Haida Indian artist, personally tutored him in the art of metal and gold engraving. This, coupled with his love of nature and great interest in Indian mysticism and spirituality, inspired him to pursue his talent for gem sculpting and metallurgy as a full time profession.
After studying at Idar Oberstein, Germany, Andreas von Zadora assembled a workshop of talented craftsmen and established himself in California. It was only when he subsequently began to repair damaged or broken Faberge pieces that some of the world’s most well known collectors encouraged him to relocate to New York.
Today his Clients include some of the worlds most discerning art connoisseurs and collectors who recognize and appreciate his unique talent and who covet his creations.
The most recent addition to his repertoire is Zadora Timepieces, a bespoke timepiece company. Each watch features a unique cylindrical dial upon which is mounted a breathtakingly beautiful embellishment of your personal choice. Together with his wife, they envision, design, and create outstanding objets d’art, jewellery and watches of unparalleled beauty, imagination and sophistication
The Zadora Frog Prince Timepiece is in textured 18kt yellow gold, the body is pavé set with tsavorites studded with blue sapphire cabochons with diamond feet details and ruby cabochon eyes. This royal amphibian proudly wears a diamond-encrusted crown. 18kt yellow gold case.
