Cult Ring "Et In Arcadia Ego"

CULT by CADEAUX JEWELRY
With its CULT series, CADEAUX JEWELRY launches into different territory where jewelry is more than a subtle mark of personal accomplishment, style or rank. CULT is precious jewelry without fear; daring, witty and outrageous, for lovers and sinners – unmistakable, provocative and flamboyant in character.



Ring “ET IN ARCADIA EGO”
The Skull: symbol of death or of life? Umberto Eco says that humans are the only beings that are aware of their own death and that in humor lies our best hope for overcoming the grim thought of our own mortality. What better symbol then than the skull to remind us of our transience and to stop us from taking ourselves too seriously?
The skull and the phrase “Et In Arcadia Ego” are both historical memento mori – reminders that life is transient and that our existence unfolds in the shadow of death. While still ambiguous to some, the skull has reemerged as a symbol for life and as a motivation to live life to its fullest.

The ring “Et In Arcadia Ego” by CADEAUX JEWELRY is made in 18 Karat gold, with over 40 black diamonds on the ring band, over 60 brilliant cut diamonds and the skull and two rubies as eyes.
