Skull & Bones (Name/Word) - Customisable Patch
Why would you get your name next to a skull and bones image?
This patch is inspired by "Memento Mori". Which is a concept dated as far back as the Roman Empire. The meaning behind this is "Look after yourself, to the time of your death; and remember you are only a man".
This patch is about love and perspective. About treasuring life and accepting its limitations. A gift to yourself or your loved ones.
Customisation
You can personalize this, choosing your own color combination as well as adding your name or a choice of two words. If you choose to have 2 words, if it looks better, we might decide to split these over two lines. A total of 14/16 characters max).

For ready-made, non-personalised designs (patches, framed pieces without customisation options), we accept returns within 14 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in their original condition, and packaged as received.
