Memento Mori Tiles

£18.00

UK delivery £7.50 (until last Christmas post)

Disembodied skulls of gold float gently across the cosmos in this striking contemporary design.

Popular in the seventeenth century, skulls and other motifs such as the hourglass and extinguished candles have been used in painting and sculpture as Memento Mori.

Its purpose is to remind us of our mortality and how life is fleeting and transient, not to scare us but to be grateful and to seize each day.

Real gold skulls and salvaged late 60s Stardust pattern are combined in balanced but random ways, so no two pieces are the same.

Variations in placement and pattern render each of these pieces unique, which means your tile may not look exactly like the ones pictured.

Sending to the EU? Thanks to Brexit, posting from the UK to the EU is now very confusing. Please be aware that additional charges may apply on delivery - this varies from country to country - so it's possible further payment might be needed to get your package through customs.

Sending to the USA? Thanks to Trump and his tariffs, posting things to the States is now a little bit tricky. It might be a good idea to contact us before placing your order, just to make sure it is possible!
