Beautiful heraldic coat of arms depicting a skull with crossed bones with 'Memento Mori' inscribed above it, completely hand-finished, in all its uniqueness (stone casting).
The Latin phrase "Memento mori", literally meaning "Remember that you must die", is an expression used to remind of human mortality and the transience of life, often with the aim of prompting reflection on the meaning of existence and to live more consciously and fulfillingly.
The "memento mori" has origins in ancient Rome, where it was used to remind victorious generals, who paraded through the streets, of their mortality, preventing them from being overwhelmed by pride.
