Davids notes: Vincent Simone is a NYC artisan jeweler, working on personal designs that incorporate antique pieces. The center of his insects are 1930s bakelite clips, so each one is unique and unlike another he creates. He always works alone, and is in his 80s.Aside from the antique piece, the rest of his creations are handmade silver, worked by Mr. Simone. Each piece he makes is signed.

His creations are known world wide, and Oscar winner Frances McDormand wore one of Vincent Simones bug creations at the Venice Film Awards, visible online by putting in the words Frances McDormand Venice Film Awards, look for the photo of her in the green dress. The Vincent Simone bug is worn on a long silver chain.
