Memento Mori Rosaries (Skull Rosaries)
The purpose of a Memento Mori rosary is to remind us of our mortality and the suffering of Christ for us so we may better serve God.
I do not make rosaries for profit or as a business. I make them as requested and the cost is an attempt to reduce losses. The making of rosaries is hindered by financial and temporal restrictions for me.
The symbolism of the rosary also is designed to emphasise the passion of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. This world rejected Christ, and those who follow Him will be rejected as well, even to death.
The Ecce Homo centre shows Christ presented to the crowd before the crucifixion. The Adam's Skull Crucifix shows the skull of Adam, of all humanity, beneath the foot of the cross showing the triumph of Christ over death.
The beads, especially beads in the form of a human skull, are intented to further remind us of the futility of the desires of the flesh.
Any compensation is usually sent after the reception of the rosary.
Contact Me if you are interested in obtaining a Memento Mori rosary from me or wish to inquire about any other service such as custom rosary making or repairs.
These Memento Mori rosaries are examples of past work. In requesting a rosary, keep in mind these designs are not fixed. The Adam's Skull Crucifix pictured comes in several sizes, but has unstable availability. The same crucifix without the Skull beneath the foot of the cross is also available.
