The ring’s face is hand-carved from a South Pacific black-lipped pearl oyster shell, depicting a skull and partial ribcage—a memento mori etched in iridescent shell. The band, crafted from 925 sterling silver with a deliberately eroded finish, resembles salvaged relics from century-old shipwrecks dredged from the ocean’s depths. It whispers tales of time: the once-tumultuous waves, tsunamis, fears, and sorrows ultimately settle into stillness, interred by the passage of years. Since tomorrow remains unknowable, why not live fully in the present? Each passing moment is irreclaimable; every life is an epic authored by its own journey.
Materials: Tahitian black-lipped pearl oyster shell, 925 sterling silver.
