Put a crown on a skull and you\n    have said everything there is to say about power in a single object — that it is temporary, that\n    it is borrowed, and that it does not travel with you. It is the oldest memento mori there is, and\n    it still lands.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This one grinds. Under the crown and the hollow sockets it is a three-chamber mechanism: grind at\n    the top, collect in the middle, fine material separated in the base. The skull is not a lid\n    decoration bolted onto a normal grinder — the whole body is cast as the shape, which is why it\n    reads properly from every angle.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Two finishes, and they are genuinely different objects. Bronze is aged and quiet, the way a\n    museum piece looks under low light.
