Omnia Vanitas Cloisonné Pin

A Symbolic Reminder to Live with Meaning

This striking pin is rich in symbolism and serves as a quiet, daily reminder to live with humility, purpose, and perspective.

  • The skull represents Memento Mori—a timeless reminder that life is fleeting.

  • The crown atop the skull reflects the emptiness of vanity and ego, no matter how powerful or privileged we may seem.

  • The checkerboard background symbolizes the constant battle between good and evil, within ourselves and in the world around us.

The design draws inspiration from the wisdom of Ecclesiastes 1:2:
“Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher. All is vanity.”
A reminder that beauty, status, and possessions are fleeting—and that a life of meaning must be rooted in something deeper.

This pin isn’t meant to judge. It’s meant to remind:
Enjoy what you have. But don’t let it define you.

As paraphrased by David Foster Wallace in 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 feel weak and afraid.
Worship intellect, and you’ll fear being found out.

Instead, serve something greater than yourself.
Serve God. Serve others.
That’s where true fulfillment begins.

Or, as voiced 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.
