Luxurious skulls have been haunting Bornrich time and again. Did I write “luxurious” as an adjective for skulls? Yeah I did, cause everything here does boast of some trace of luxury, without a doubt. And that doesn’t spare authentic human skulls, either. If you are wondering who would want to deck up such a deadly thing or why anyone would spend thousands to flaunt it in their living room then allow me to resolve your justified queries. When Quinn Gregory, the designer of the Swarovski-studded skulls, was diagnosed with a rare life-threatening heart disease, he turned to this art to deal with the realities of death and the inexpressible aura surrounding it. Separating body from soul, the artist has emphasized that our body along with skeleton is simply hollow form. Bejeweling a part our skeleton, skull in particular, Quinn has creatively livened up the after-death remains. The latest from his collection is the Harper. This woman’s skull has been generously covered with white Swarovski crystals while light blue sapphires make up for those mesmerizing eyes. I’m sure this lady’s soul would be thrilled to see a part of her body dazzling with all those crystals.

Christening each of his creations renders uniqueness and gives the skull identity after death. Every creation is limited edition with prices starting from $3,000 and all are festooned with about 8,500 to 12,500 crystals. You can also take a look at other ornamented skulls like the Dead or Alive and creations of artists like Damien Hirst, Walter Robinson and Amy Sarkisian.
