Harbinger of Death, the latest mini-collection from Jewel Heritage, features micro skulls of avian creatures. These pieces of jewelry are dark and morbid, pushing fashion towards an eerie edge.

Currently, the Harbinger of Death collection includes two rings and a pendant that is in the making, and will soon be available to the public. The two rings feature the same design, but with different finishes. One features a complete 18k-gold finish while the other has a black rhodium, 18k-gold finish.

Whether you choose the all gold piece or the black skull piece, the Harbinger of Death rings will definitely cause a stir and get people talking. They seem like they could be jewelry worn by followers of Voldemort in the Harry Potter movies.
