Shinsei Togai Pendant, Gold Brass and Australian Sapphires

Translating roughly to "Sacred Skull", this was my dream piece. The hand carved Skull face is hollow in back to keep a nice wearable weight. The eye sockets hold two fine bicolor Australian fair mined sapphires in teal blue with a hint of green gold; the forehead boasts a sea green rose cut, and the 3 carat trillion cut blue green at the base holds a universe inside. Let this little dead friend remind you each day that life is a precious and temporary experience; live each day with reverence for those who have come before and those who shall inherit our human mess.
