Lady's Head
If you ever wondered just what sort of things you might find on the beach, this one is probably way down the list - a decapitated lady's head. Not a real head, that would be way too disturbing & I probably wouldn't be able to take a photo of it for you, never mind keeping the actual thing. I'm talking about a porcelain one. Chopped off by the pirates, nibbled by sharks, caressed by the sea until washing up with seaweed and pebbles on the shores of an island - this lady didn't seem to have much luck! But, with any luck, it will soon be converted into a pendant - a true and crazy one of a kind kinda thing that no one else is bound to have. Here are some pics of the head (you can see I've already began drilling at the top into one of the 'feathers'):
