what's better than a signet? a memento mori signet! a wearable reminder of our mortality, those we've lost, and a visual signal to invite us into being more present and grateful for each moment.
a collage between an old 9k British signet with fading engraved details and an old skull from a fraternal pin of yesteryear with fading facial features. they've been carefully collaged together by a master jeweler and the skull has new diamond eyes
the ring's band is narrow enough that with some determination you can incorporate this sweet face into a stack of rings.
