Ruger Mark IV 22/45 maple grips - Skull Flowers (3169) / hand-painted

Style features

"Skull into flowers" (or "skull with flowers") is a powerful visual motif blending death and rebirth, rooted in Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) traditions in Mexico and broader memento mori symbolism. Human skulls adorned with vibrant marigolds, roses, and chrysanthemums represent the cycle of life: death is not the end, but a transformation into beauty and memory

The image exploded in popularity through Mexican sugar skulls (calaveras de azúcar), hand-decorated with icing flowers since the 17th–18th centuries to honor deceased loved ones during Día de los Muertos (November 1–2). Modern tattoo culture, street art, and graphic design (especially after Frida Kahlo's influence and Disney's Coco in 2017) turned the skull-to-flowers design into a global symbol of resilience, remembrance, and embracing mortality with joy

Why wood, not G10 or micarta?

Wood offers greater comfort, warmth, and aesthetic satisfaction. Wood is lighter and more pleasant to hold. Wooden grips are best suited for customization and hand finishing. Or perhaps made from G10 and micarta. Why not?
