I just wanted to chime in and support Shannon's point about skulls.  Memento Mori are common in the Church.  They are a reminder of our mortality and are not out of place.
And... I have a couple items on order with RR now.  They have a nice product and are fantastic to work with!
Give these guys some love.

Not only that, but the skull at Calvary harkens to the tradition that Our Lord was crucified over Adam's grave, and that his skull was beneath there.  That's reportedly the reason that it was called Golgotha or "the place of the skull".

So no issue there.  Also, the medal after the initial 3 Haily Marys is not always there.

Here's a good exposition of the tradition that Adam's skull was beneath Our Lord's cross ...

I have one of your Rosaries! I am just too tough on the regular ones, always placing them in my pocket, purse or car, getting them tangled, losing the Crucifix, etc. These are my favorite, (with a Miraculous medal and St Benedict's medal), They are big enough that I always find them in my bag and they are impossible to break.( They don't need to be babied!) I have had these longer than any other pair of Rosaries ever . Now that I am used to these larger Rosaries, I don't want to pray on anything else. They also make a strong impact when people see them in public when you are saying your prayers outside walking etc. People frequently ask about them so it's also a good ice breaker for promoting Our Lady and the Rosary.
My full endorsement to you and your company!

Do you have a 15-decade option?  Most of us here would not be interested in the 20-decade ones.

Yes, most rosaries seem to be the 15 decade ones. I have a WWI replica and must say that no one would regret buying it, unless they need large beads. These things are seemingly indestructible! My Dad also bought a very heavy duty paracord one, but found it too heavy and large for how he likes to use his. However, this one is also indestructible and could also be used as a weapo. I am not joking.
