This 17th-century carving of Christ’s head was originally part of a monk's rosary, intricately sculpted from animal bone. The reverse side depicts a skull, embodying the Memento Mori philosophy, a reminder of mortality and the transient nature of life.

The piece is expertly crafted, with Christ’s serene expression skillfully rendered by a master artisan.

A rare and evocative historical artifact, perfect for collectors or as a distinguished addition to a study or interior space.
