Bronze Mystical Momento Mori Skeleton Pendant

Victorians loved to use skulls as symbols for ‘momento mori’ translated from Latin meaning, ‘remember you must die’. It’s another way to remind ourselves that life is short and precious and to make the most of the time we have.

This detailed little skeleton is sleeping in flowers and vines and would look great on a bracelet of wire wrapped stone chain, or in a cluster with crystals.

This listing is for one charm.

This little pendant is made of pure bronze, from a hand carved mold. The pendant features hallmarks of a handmade item: fingerprints impressed into the back, little cracks and crevaces - not defects, but marks left to replicate ancient coins.

Note: All of our items are hand crafted from the finest materials available. It is our wish to create goods that will last several lifetimes and be cherished by our great grand kids! Also be aware that each piece is made by hand, meaning little differences may occur, like a tiny air bubble or seam line may be visible. These variances should not be viewed as flaws, but as evidence they are a handmade item.

Measures about 33mm long.
Thanks for looking!
