"Guardian of Silence" Skull Statue – Glasses & Headphone Stand, 25 cm
Practical Decoration with a Touch of Mystery
You will never have to search the whole apartment for your glasses again. The shape of the nasal bone and eye sockets is perfectly adapted for safely resting prescription glasses or sunglasses. Thanks to its height of 25 cm and a stable base decorated with small skulls and ornaments, the statue also serves as a stand for headphones. The gesture of silence symbolizes the quiet needed for reading or concentrating on work, making it an ideal companion for a library or study.
Symbolism: Memento Mori and Silence
In art history and philosophy, the skull is a classic symbol of Memento Mori ("Remember death"), which is not meant to instill fear but to remind us to live life to the fullest. The gesture of the finger before the mouth, known as the signum harpocraticum, signifies secrecy, discretion, and the preservation of wisdom. This statue thus combines a reminder of transience with a call to maintain calm and prudence in a busy world.

How to Care for the Statue
To ensure this skeletal companion stays looking like new for a long time, just follow a few principles:
- Cleaning: Remove dust with a fine duster or a dry cloth. Do not use water or chemical cleaners, which could damage the hand-painted finish.
- Placement: The statue is intended for indoor use. Avoid direct sunlight (colours may fade over time) and damp environments.
- Handling: Polyresin is a hard but brittle material. Be careful not to drop the statue on a hard floor; the protruding finger is particularly prone to breaking.
Warnings
Please remember that this is a decorative item, not a toy. Keep it out of reach of small children and pets to prevent damage.
A stylish replica of a historical quill pen would look great on your desk alongside this stand.
