For many years, the skull has been part of Josephine Bergsøe’s universe. Over time, the Memento Mori necklace has become a signature. But what does the skull truly mean? Since antiquity, the skull has symbolised life’s impermanence. During the Renaissance and Baroque periods, it appeared in art as a quiet reminder of time passing — of mortality, and of living consciously.For Josephine, the skull carries that same duality. It is raw and poetic at once. An honest form without hierarchy or status. Beneath the surface, we are all the same.Thirty years ago, she created her first skull piece: a hand-carved coral skull surrounded by pearls and brilliant-cut diamonds. Since then, Memento Mori has evolved through new interpretations and gemstones, while always holding the same message: A reminder to be present. To live with awareness. To see one another for what we are — human.This iteration is hand carved in white mammoth, set with emerald, blue sapphire, and keshi pearl, and finished with brilliant-cut diamonds — 0.02 ct. and 2 × 0.04 ct. TW VS — alongside eight small keshi pearls. Material: Gold Karat: 18K,22K Stone: Emerald, Sapphire & Pearl Stone Carat: 0.02 ct. 2 x 0.04 ct Stone Type: TW vs Chain length: 80
