Day of the Dead necklace with Amethyst

With all things happening lately, I find myself charmed by skulls a lot... To entertain my fears and feel better, I turned to the Day of the Dead holiday, because I think it illustrates the idea of death and rebirth so wonderfully... Inspired by this idea of death and rebirth, I created a necklace with a white flower and an amethyst bead...







Also, the skull is genuine carved ox bone, so the whole design feels very natural and organic. I love it!

Day of the Dead Necklace

The idea to have a Day of the Dead fascinates me. So I decided to make a necklace for this holiday (celebrated on November 2), which of course can be worn all year round.

Here it is, made with a wooden skull and a red coral bead, along with a white plastic flower and a couple of seed beads, mounted on golden brass chain. It really is very elegant!









Enjoy this wonderful piece, only one was made!
