You know what we don’t have enough of around here? Jewelry made from animal parts. Fortunately, that’s easily correctible.<\/p>\nYou know what we don’t have enough of around here? Jewelry made from animal parts. Fortunately, that’s easily correctible.<\/p>\n
Etsy shop Beloved & Co.<\/a> sells all kinds of interesting vintage accoutrements, including many that involve animal bits. I’m particularly taken with this antique Raven Beak Pendant<\/a>. This seller also runs the Cabinet of Curiosities<\/a> blog.<\/p>\n Another Etsy seller, Abysmal<\/a>, mixes delicate little animal bones with beads and other pretty things to make lovely items like the Cry of the Butterfly<\/a> choker, shown above. Her items are surprisingly inexpensive, and she donates a portion of the sale to the wild bird center that supplies many of her bones.<\/p>\n For something a little more “in your face” dead animal-wise, Custom Creature Taxidermy<\/a> offers items like muskrat foot earrings and pendants made of vials containing pickled baby mice.<\/p>\n I’ve also run across several mentions of work by The Squirrel Hole<\/a>, but there’s currently a “Customer Has Exceeded Bandwidth” notice at the site. Hopefully it’ll be back up soon and we can check out the squirrel bits.<\/p>\n
