Grim Reaper Devil Skull 925 Sterling Silver Biker Cross Pendant
SKU: 1879
Five skulls sit on the face of this cross — one on each arm, one at the crossing — with the frame between them cut all over in a cracked, crazed texture. At 28 grams of solid .925 sterling silver, it's heavy enough to hang straight on any chain. The cross measures 1¾" × 2⅛" with ¾ inch of depth, so the sculpted skulls have real dimensionality. Hallmarked on the reverse. Chain not included.
Best Suited For
If you wear skull jewelry and want a cross with attitude — This isn't a clean, simple cross. Five skulls hold the arms and the crossing, and the metal between them is broken up with a cracked surface texture. The cross shape stays readable, but the skulls dominate. It's gothic and biker in the same piece.
If you appreciate heavy silver craftsmanship — Twenty-eight grams is substantial for a pendant. The ¾-inch depth carries all five skulls in raised relief: eye sockets sunk deep, brow ridges standing clear of the frame, jaw lines cut as separate edges you can trace along the front.
If you're building a gothic silver collection — The grim reaper/devil skull motif pairs with other skull rings, chains, and bracelets. The cross shape makes it versatile enough to layer with non-skull pieces without clashing stylistically.
What Wearing It Actually Feels Like
All five face forward, each one set into the flared end of its own arm. The level of detail is visible at arm's length: individual teeth, hollow eye sockets, the ridge of each brow. The polished skull domes catch light while the cracks running across the frame stay dark from oxidation.
At ¾ inch thick, this pendant has real volume. It's not flat against your chest — it projects outward. When it swings on a chain, the different skull angles catch light from different directions. The weight keeps it hanging forward-facing rather than spinning.
Twenty-eight grams is noticeable. You feel it when you lean forward, and it settles firmly when you sit up. It's in the middle range for this catalog — heavier than the lighter pendants, lighter than the 30+ gram pieces. Comfortable for all-day wear on a chain that can handle the weight.
The Details That Matter
What People Want to Know
Q: How many skulls are on this pendant?
Five — one at the end of each arm and one at the crossing. They read as one dark mass at a glance because the cracked texture between them is oxidized just as deeply as the eye sockets, which is why the count is easy to miss in a photo.
Q: What chain should I use with a 28-gram pendant?
A solid sterling silver chain in 3-5mm thickness works best — curb, rolo, or box link. A 22-26 inch length places it at mid-chest. At 28 grams the pendant has real heft, so a thin or hollow chain will look out of proportion and may wear at the bail over time.
Q: Is the detail visible or does it blur at a distance?
At arm's length, you can see each skull, its teeth and its eye sockets. The oxidized finish darkens the recesses so the polished skull domes stand out — this contrast makes the design readable even from a few feet away.
