Reviewed product: Three Skull Pendant

For any pirates wanting to accessorize with jewelry that differs from the typical jolly roger motif - while still remaining perfectly grim and swashbuckling - Celtic Jackalope has developed its Three Skull Pendant.

This sterling pendant features three grinning skulls atop the backdrop of a filagree-laden sword. Three fleur-de-lis surround the borders, accompanied by an iron-cross(ish) engraving just near the bezel. Nearly three inches tall, this is a commanding piece of swag that's sure to garner many admiring comments. Consistent with Celtic Jackalope's usual attention to detail, the back of this piece is nearly as detailed as the front, clearly showing the backs of the skulls, sword, and all other features. Despite the many tiny "appendages," this casting is very solid. Each component is plenty robust to maintain its structural integrity, even if it gets roughed up a bit while you're out skewering Spaniards.

A very gorgeous pendant. I think it will look particularly brilliant after it ages and tarnishes a bit for that proper piratey "weathered" effect.
