Wearable art

I purchased this item for my teenaged son. He loved it, but loved it even more when it came with a hand-signed card from the artisan. Now when people compliment him on it, he recounts the artist's story.

Okay so I like creepy things

The detail in these is amazing. They are small but amazingly detailed and you can't always tell they are skulls unless you really look at them, so I only creep out the observant. I wear them all the time, not just in October.
