Pirate Jewelry Hot as Ever As Real Life Pirates Still Roam The Oceans

Pirate jewelry pretty much includes everything that deals with skulls, skeletons and other frightening images that once flew on a flagpole on board a pirate vessel. These images represent fierce force and instilled fear. This is why these images are still so popular today among people of various ages. It is popular in hip hop, rock and other sub cultures like motorcycle crews.


Skull jewelry has been hot for many years but recently there has been an absolute craze with everything that has to do with skulls. Celebrities like Jim Jones wear their iced out skull buckles on TV and suddenly everyone wants a skull buckle. These are elaborate, fully paved pieces of jewelry with precision craftsmanship. Rappers wear skull designed dials on iced out watches and skulls with crossbones dangling from their chains. Everyone wants pirate jewelry but the celebrity level bling costs an arm and a leg. Luckily you can get skull jewelry for much less at stores that specialize in alternatives to high priced bling bling.


Specialty retailers such as hip hop bling carries a full line of pirate jewelry. The skull jewelry selection is complete with a full line of pendants, buckles, watches and more. For those who are really into pirates, there are even full blown pirate designs like a pirate of the Caribbean pendant, skull designs wearing pirate hats and holding pirate swords among others. The quality and craftsmanship is very good and similar to the real versions desgined for celebrities. You get the same nice finish as the plating is very thick and uses real rhodium and gold. The stones shine like real diamonds as well. They are great alternatives to the real versions, which cost thousands.


The latest craze is gunmetal finish, which is different and unique compared to the typical gold or white metal items. The belt buckles are available in the latest gunmetal finish for an even more dark, fearful look. The deep dark finish looks amazing set with bright white stones. Gunmetal skull jewelry is also available as pendant and chain combos too. This finish suits the image of pirate jewelry very well because of it’s unique dark look.
