A seriously small sterling silver skull wax seal necklace pendant ... meaningful wax seal jewelry.

- symbolism -
In heraldry, the skull is symbolic of mortality and a reminder that death comes to all living things ... the Latin sentiment MEMENTO MORI means remember your death and is meant to inspire you to intentionally think about your own death every day, as a means of appreciating the present and focus on the future.

- approximate measurement - almost 3/8” (10mm x 8mm) really tiny!
- wax seal charm metal - sterling silver (.925 silver)
- photographed with a US dime and inch ruler for scale
- charm only - chain sold separately here.

Hand crafted from just a portion of an antique Georgian wheel wax seal (1714 - 1830), shown in the photographs, the full size wax seal depicting a skull surrounded by the Latin sentiment ES FVI SVM ERIS which translates YOU ARE, I WAS, YOU WILL BE.

More chains, charm catchers and swivel fobs are available here.  And if you'd prefer an oxidized chain (antiqued) to the shiny chain shown, simply make this request at checkout in the "add a note to your order" box.
