Skull Art
Mankind has always been fascinated by decorated or jewelled skulls throughout the ages and across many cultures. Skulls have been used as symbols of power. religion or simply as art.
There has always been a keen interest for skulls in the art world, but this interest rocketed recently when famous artist Damian Hirst presented the world with his latest creation. A diamond encrusted skull which was sold at an auction for the pricely sum of $100 million.
But where did Hirst get his inspiration from?

Diamonds are a skulls best friend
Of course, if you like the Hirst diamond skull but can't afford to pay $100 million you can always go for ´Hirst inspired` skulls which have been created by other artists. Most of them are adorned with Swarovski crystals as real diamonds are far too expensive to use.
