Our Skull stud earrings are super cute and a must for all Heart of Bone jewellery enthusiasts. These intricately detailed skull stud earrings are mini but they throw out serious maximum badass bling. Our stud earrings are hand carved first in wax by Emma in our South Melbourne workshop. Each Heart of Bone Skull stud earring is hand stamped with our house hallmark and a traditional 925 sterling silver stamp. Each pair of our solid sterling silver Skull stud earrings are gift wrapped in an exclusive Heart of Bone gift box with Heart of Bone ribbon. Skulls have always been an inspiration and have been used by Emma symbolically throughout her career as an artist. Skulls represent life, death, impermanence, defiance, transformation, rebellion against social norms, strength, warrior traditions, immortality and the human experience. They are also a great reminder or memento mori- an object kept as a reminder of the invisibility of death, such as a skull. The origin of the Latin term Memento Mori literally means- 'remember (that you have) to die.' Heart of Bone's badass gothic inspired Jewelry collections often features skulls in our unique and handcrafted designs as they resonate authentically with the aesthetic of the brand and its rebellious and unapologetic style. Skulls are reminders that one day we will indeed succumb to the same fate.
