Requiem Dark.

The word requiem comes from the opening words of the Roman Catholic Mass for the Dead, which is spoken or sung in Latin (requies means “rest”).

In a nonreligious context the word refers simply to an act of remembrance.

So, with that in mind you now understand why this delicious combination of bones, baroque & light eating facets will hence forth be know as Requiem Dark.

Beware, this giant is a force to be reckoned with. The oxidised claws of this beastie clutch a 14x10mm sun swallowing Black Cubic Zirconia.

BONE FACTS TO SAVE (OR NOT) FOR A LATER DATE:

In the Stone Age, pendants with potent symbolism were made from animal teeth & bones, adorning clothes or accessories & serving as rattles.

Human bones were also used as a raw material for pendants.

Bones are considered to be powerful symbols & are used in religious or spiritual practices. For example, bones may be carved or painted as talismans to bring good luck or to ward off evil spirits.

In many cultures, bones are used to create jewellery or other items as a way of honouring & remembering ancestors.

Bone jewellery was actually one of the first types of prehistoric adornment.

The earliest forms of jewellery began as a functional piece & evolved into religious symbols, then to decorative ornaments.

You may or may not know this but, this gothic work of art has a seductive twin. Requiem Light.
