Lost Wax Bronze Castings by Cavin Richie


Born in 1950 in Ft. Collins Colorado, Cavin grew up in the Rocky Mountains. His love for wildlife was a natural reflection of his surroundings, a passion that has endured & fueled his desire to carve. Cavin’s main interest is natural history and his designs reflect this passion. Birds, mammals, and amphibians are well represented in his bronze castings. His castings are very accurate, detailed miniature bronze sculptures designed to be worn.

Carving for the over 25 years, Cavin has created original wildlife jewelry for galleries throughout the Pacific Northwest. His years of devoted study, both in the field and his studio, has made him quite adept at creating realistic poses of wildlife. The best of his carvings are selected for reproduction in bronze.
