Collection: Memento Mori & Mourning Jewelry
This ever-changing collection honors centuries-old traditions of remembrance, grief, and love. Each piece—whether an intricately carved jet brooch, a Victorian hairwork locket, or a ring bearing a skull, urn, or weeping willow—was once worn in tribute to a life lost but never forgotten.
These are not reproductions or restocks. Most are one-of-a-kind, and once they’re gone, they’re truly gone. Some are subtle, some dramatic, but all carry the weight of memory and the artistry of a time when jewelry was both ornament and elegy.
Browse often. Pieces come and go as fleetingly as the moments they commemorate.
