Lucian Voss

Aeternum

The only artist on the planet whose canvas is immortality.

Under the exclusive guidance of Dr. Karl Niklas of Cornell University — the world’s foremost authority on plant evolution and paleobiology — Lucian Voss commissioned the development of something that has never existed before. A proprietary cultivar of the only tree species on Earth that does not age. Trademarked. His alone. The Arboris Eternus™. He has tamed immortality itself. And he has made it wearable. To this immortal tree he has done something no artist, no scientist, and no jeweler has ever done — encoding a personal message permanently to its DNA, cryptographically mapped to the unique genetic sequence of the Arboris Eternus™. From that encoded genetic material he creates the Eternal Drop — sealed inside a natural diamond, visible through the stone, held in platinum.
