About the Item

These earrings combine the ancient jewelry concept of Memento Mori with modern-day gem-cutting technologies in the form of black diamonds cut into skull shapes. This set is one of the three designs in Wendy's mini collection titled "Carpe Diem," which translates to "seize the day." The concepts of Memento Mori and Carpe Diem go hand-in-hand, reminding the wearer to live each day to its fullest. These earrings are totally one of a kind. No one else will have them -- just you! 18K yellow gold, satin finish. Fancy-cut black diamonds, totaling 2.54 carats. White diamonds, totaling 6 points. One of a kind. Made in New York City.
