Design by Ali Bakova

Memento Mori, from the Latin ‘Remember you will die’, is less a doom-laden prophecy, but instead an inducement to live every day to the full, as if it might be your last.

Created by the Istanbul-based designer, Ali Bakova, and cast from faceted crystalline glass that catches the light in a prismatic fashion, this black skull-shaped ornament from the NUDE Memento Mori range offers a modern twist on the timeless mantra. Available in several sizes, this one is large.

The NUDE Memento Mori collection takes one of history's most enduring symbols and renders it in crystalline glass — with results that are as beautiful as they are thought-provoking. The collection brings together two distinct visions: faceted skull sculptures in two sizes by Ali Bakova, and a series of faceted skull bowls by Erdem Akan. Each piece is meticulously crafted, the multifaceted surface catching and refracting light in a way that feels anything but morbid. A deeply personal accessory for the home — and a reminder that the most meaningful objects are the ones that make you think.

Ali Bakova

Ali Bakova is a Turkish industrial designer and educator based in Maslak, Istanbul; a district where creative studios and industrial workshops exist in close proximity, an environment that speaks directly to his practice. His work moves between the playful and the precise: a chair referencing the iconic Galata Bridge, a ceramic piece drawing from Iznik tile tradition, always anchored by a commitment to purity and smart functionality. Bakova is also one of Istanbul's most respected design educators, and in 2015 co-curated Atölye Maslak Maker Culture; an exhibition exploring small-scale artisanal production using 3D printing technology. His ability to distil cultural reference into essential form makes him a compelling voice in contemporary Turkish design.
