From Hamlet’s “Alas poor Yorick” speech in the graveyard to the modern Skull Island, home to the giant ape known as King Kong, skulls have been something that fascinates our consciousness, yet is almost always associated with something we fear greatly.

Both genders have found great reasons to love wearing skull designs and skull jewelry is commonly made for both.
