Memento Mori Earring
Memento Mori Earring
Memento Mori Earring.
A last chance to buy these little dudes. I have a few of these antique skulls left and then this design will be discontinued.
These little skull earrings are made from carved bone beads, which are apparently from 1910! I bought these weird skulls from a lady who collected Memento Mori jewellery. They’re carved from ox bone and have glass bead eyes.
I’ve popped them onto 14ct gold filled elements to make these stud-style earrings, and they feature reclaimed coral and pearl beads.
Details:
Single Earring.
An antique skull with glass eyes (possibly from 1910!).
14ct Gold Filled Stud Earring with Butterfly Scroll Back - suitable for sensitive ears.
Lightweight.
Features either a reclaimed pale coral bead or an irregular reclaimed white pearl - you choose!
Hangs about 2.5cm.
Each little funny face is unique. They’re wonky and weird.
There may be traces of epoxy glue around the beads.
Please allow 5-10 days for shipping.
Care:
It’s best to remove these pieces when sleeping, doing sports, swimming, bathing etc. They’re made from antique elements and reclaimed gemstones - corals and pearls are softer gemstones and don’t like getting wet.
You’ll be sent a care card and a polishing cloth with your order. Read the care rituals and give the filled gold an occasional gentle polish with the microfibre cloth.
