Stylish  and  symbolic  skulls

Picture
​Often represented by the skull, gothic adornment is alive and well. One of the world’s most compelling and ancient symbols, the skull represents death and evil for some, but power, fearlessness, rebellion and strength for others. For centuries, skulls have been used in various types of decoration, including art, objects and jewelry. From tribal warnings to reminders of mortality, and from symbols of swashbuckling pirates to modern-day hip-hopers, skulls have come a long way. In jewelry, their expressions range from stark black and white to a myriad of fashionable colors.
