Memento Mori Two-Toned Charm Material: Mixed Metal

Hold the darkness close. Throughout art history, the memento mori (reminder of death) has been hidden in paintings, usually in the form of a skull. In the Victorian era, these reminders were worn on the body as mourning jewelry, an ever-present symbol that time is fleeting and nothing is promised. Our Memento Mori pendant is an homage to this macabre practice. A spectral skull is held in a simple frame, its gaze alive with white sapphire eyes. Wear it as a reminder to seize every moment, for death is only in the next room. The Memento Mori Two-Toned Charm is a pendant in 14k yellow gold vermeil and 925 sterling silver, set with white sapphire.
