Singularities
Here you'll find the oddballs, the orphans, the one-offs, appearing faces that disappear at dawn. When Nature offers a special gift or Science uncovers something particularly striking, it is the province of Art to remind us never to take the beauty that surrounds us for granted.

Amber Scorpion Pendant
This scorpion appears to be bent in half, its claws at a 180 degree angle from where they should be. Maybe it tried to flip itself out of the resin, or maybe the continued flow of the sap broke it. Let it be a lesson to you - stay away from oozing conifers if you weigh less than an ounce. Amber drop with scorpion, 2 1/2 by 1 1/2 inches (65 by 33 mm), on an 18-inch strand of amber and sterling beads. $74.00

| The Death of Rats SQUEEK! While this charming little creature has technically gone to the Great Cheese in the Sky, his skull makes a delightful tribute to the fate of all flesh. Dainty beaded worms and a shiny glass eye add a touch of whimsy to what, in the end, awaits us all. Skull double-dipped in polyurethane to keep the inevitability of decay metaphorical! On an adjustable heavy cotton cord.

| The ancient Greeks considered the fly a "psychopomp," one who conducts the souls of the dead to their next existence. Little did they know that the fly would become a brilliant postmodern fashion statement! Reinforced with polyurethane and mounted on sterling posts, these are still genuine Beelzebugs, and should be treated gently. | ||||
