I posted a crystal skull ring made by the high-end Japanese fashion brand,
Random, that I excitedly splurged on (pictured below). It was made from silver and was encrusted with
Swarovski crystals. However, if you're looking for something a little less aggressive,
Takashi Murakami has expanded his influence in jewelry design.
Murakami, whose collaborations with
Louis Vuitton (
monogramouflauge print) and
Kanye West (artwork on
Graduation album), has made quite a name for himself. The collaboration with
Kaikai Kiki on this
Dokuro Ring puts a humorous twist on the skull by incorporating his signature smiley face flowers. To give you an idea on the price, the sterling silver version is set at 68,250 yen ($730 USD) while the white gold and diamond version is 3,675,000 yen ($39,000 USD).
