Because you should be shredding the mountain, not your skull

A proud Indian headdress... for your fingers

Don’t wear a Native American headdress. But do wear an Indian chief skull ring. Or something.

"The Longer You Last" skull-cast series from Hedi Xandt

Artist, graphic designer and all-around creative force Hedi Xandt has bumped up the price tag on this puzzle box by giving our good friend Pinhead from Clive Barker’s Hellraiser series a bit of the Midas touch. While die-casting objects, not excluding the human skull, into golden hues seems to be a recurring motif in the artist’s work, what […]


Who doesn’t want an edible human skull hand-made to order? Now that would be a delicacy — a fine, bone-grind of a cannibal’s dessert. Made from a mould that was hand cast from a real human skull, never you mind what crime scene made such a thing possible in the first place. Become your own personal […]


Back in the 17th century, Mary Queen of Scots once had a beautifully crafted skull watch made in her honor. Not long after, her head got chopped clean off. That historical timepiece, with some notes from the Day of the Dead, have directly inspired Fiona Krüger and this Black Skull watch. Each hand-decorated three-layer watch keeps its […]
