Hand-Beaded Omnia Vanitas Bullion Patch

Omnia Vanitas Hand-Beaded Patch

A Statement Piece With Substance

An elevated version of our classic embroidered patch, this design adds depth, texture, and brilliance through hand-applied beading. The result is a striking, three-dimensional piece that commands attention and sparks conversation.

Available with a black background for darker fabrics or a white background for lighter ones, this patch is designed to make a statement—visually and philosophically.

Symbolism in Every Detail:

• The Skull – A Memento Mori reminder that life is fleeting and precious.

• The Crown on the Skull – A nod to the futility of vanity and earthly power.

• The Checkerboard Background – A symbol of the ongoing battle between good and evil.

• The Winged Hourglass Crest – Tempus Fugit (“Time flies”); a call to do good while time remains.

• "Omnia Vanitas" – Latin for “All is vanity”, taken from Ecclesiastes 1:2:
  “Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher. All is vanity.”

This patch is not a critique of materialism or self-image—but a quiet reminder:
Enjoy what you own. Don’t let it own you.

As paraphrased from David Foster Wallace's This Is Water:

“Worship money, and you’ll never feel you have enough.
Worship beauty, and you’ll always feel ugly.
Worship power, and you’ll end up afraid.
Worship intellect, and you’ll feel like a fraud.
Instead, worship God. Serve others.
That’s where real fulfillment begins.”

And as echoed in Logic’s AfricAryan:

“You’re not your salary, your house, or your car.
Your grave is six feet deep like everyone else’s.
So live fully. Live kindly. Live now.”
