Sophie was commissioned to create this fabulous Memento Mori, a modern-day version of a Victorian Staple. A reminder of our mortality and to life live to the fullest…
Hand crafted in Sterling Silver with 18ct Yellow Gold & Gold-plated detail, an exquisitely hand engraved snake wraps its way around the frame and a winged skull takes centre stage with piercing black Diamond eyes and blood red Rubies set into the crown. The pendant hangs from the Classic Curb Chain with our signature winged T-bar and clasp.

The Latin words ‘Memento Mori’ (meaning, ‘remember you will die’) are beautifully hand engraved below and a little sparkling round Ruby is nestled in the curl of the snake’s tail. Indeed, in many cultures the snake symbolises renewal and immortality…
