The Skulls come out to play this Hallow's Eve

The Ruff&Cut Skulls Collection has been one of our most popular collections ever since their conception in 2008. For one thing, the collection offers a wide selection of styles to choose from, from bracelets to earrings to necklaces and more, it offers something for everyone! Styles for men and women, plus many under $300. The skulls are adored by Brooke Shields and Axel Rose, and are currently carried exclusively at Glittering Conscience and J.W. Cooper.

Yet, the reason we're talking about the Skulls Collection today is because skulls make us think of spooky things, Gothic things, and Halloween! As R&C Founder Wade Watson once put it:
Skulls are the motif of the outsider, the Gothic loner, the abrasive individualist, and the immutable iconoclast—a symbol worn by people who have either achieved a level of success that allows them to express themselves by wearing clothes and jewelry slightly out of the norm of what is deemed acceptable by society at large, or by people driven to want every part of them to scream, "get me out of here—I’m not like everybody else!"
Does this describe you? Whether it does or not, we're sure you'll find something you to suit your fancy in our collection, something that will bring out that "Gothic loner" or "abrasive individualist." Skulls are unique yet common in their symbol as a fashion symbol; just think, skulls have been used to decorate humans and homes since before the beginning of civilization, when tribes of people just learning to hunt and make fire would wear their enemy's bones as necklaces and display their skulls in their homes (caves) as trophies.

Skulls symbolize a lot, resonating with the Mexican Day of the Dead holiday and the Gaelic holiday Samhain- now our modern day Halloween. In honor of all that they symbolize, all of the Skulls Collection is on sale for 20% off original prices with coupon code SKULLS20. Enter the code at check-out; this offer is also good at Glittering Conscience at 96 West Houston St NYC and the sale lasts through October. So, if you're feeling like treating yourself to something to help you get in touch with your inner outsider (or outer outsider), or to help someone else truly express themself, now is the time!

Do it in style and with a glittering conscience...







As always, all skulls are made in America from 100% recycled 18k gold and sterling silver. All diamonds and gemstones featured on certain designs are ethically sourced. 10% of proceeds go to non-profit partners.
