Skullis

2011-07-08 19:12:41.863128+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I did not know that there was enough of a market for carved stone skulls such that Skullis would advertise themselves as "creator of the finest crystal & gemstone skulls", but there you are. I suppose that "totally metal" is actually more refined than this.

But snarking is easy, and there's some beatiful rock there. Check out the 16.9" long ammonite skull or the lace agate skull that looks like a Grateful Dead artifact.

And hopefully in a thousand years someone will write a new-age self-help book based on digging through the remains of a completely metal crash pad and use these skulls as evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence.

Via MeFi, where it was observed that:

Man, the world is a big place. You have to figure there is a very small sliver of overlap between people who have $6000 to drop on an Ammonite fossil skull and the people who want a $6000 Ammonite fossil skull. an yet Skullis survives.
