skeleton jewelry

Inspired by the etching of a well-dressed skeleton created by Mexican illustrator Jose Guadalupe Posada in 1913, Guatemalan artisan Estuardo Jimenez creates a necklace with a handmade sterling silver skull pendant. The original drawing, called La Calavera Catrina, had the skeleton wearing a large and ornate hat and was meant as a satire of Mexicans who wished to emulate upper-class Europeans. This Catrina has an engraved leaf and flower head covering rather than a hat and hangs from black cotton cord. Openwork gives the skull the appearance of facial features. The necklace can be made longer or shorter using the sliding knot on the cord.

Appearing to grin, two skulls are crafted of sterling silver with a gleaming 18k gold plating. Balinese artisan Asmara Putra creates these striking stud earrings.

The coquettish image of the Catrina inspires Roy Nilson's Day of the Dead jewelry collection. Catrina is the original creation of José Guadalupe Posadas, renowned author, journalist and political cartoonist (1852-1913). He is credited for popularizing the Day of the Dead celebrations, especially through the creation of skeletal cartoons that capture the Mexican attitude towards death. The most renowned of these is the Catrina, (meaning "dapper"), and she is always elegantly dressed featuring a wide brimmed hat with colorful flowers.
