Day of the Dead Necklace


El Día de los Muertos is the Mexican Catholic celebration of the Day of the Dead, which traces its origin to the Aztec culture. This two-part necklace features a sterling silver Calavera (Skull) pendant by Lacey with sterling silver "milagros" - figures of hearts, arms, ears, and so forth used by Mexican Catholics in prayers for healing and good fortune. The black beads are volcanic glass, with antique crystal elements and Czech red glass seed beads, as well as rock crystal skulls and beads. This necklace can be worn in separate pieces or together.

The Day of the Dead necklace is $3,000
A copy (delivery 2-3 weeks) is $1,000. Copies will not be exactly like the original, but will have the same or similar elements arranged in the same way.
