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…
History, philosophy, precious metals, and gemstones all meet in this gorgeous and soulful piece that was created for an American gentleman with an eye for a unique bespoke treasure!
