Couture for Cannibals
By Bryce • Jan 5th, 2010 • Category: FASHION, JewelryJewelry is the accessory that just keeps on giving. Regardless of season or style, it can always be repurposed, just like teeth and hair. Teeth and hair? Yup. If your attitude is anything like Polly van der Glas‘, you probably think that wasting such chic human bi-products is a sin.
Polly is a jewelry designer and silversmith, creating jewelry made from human teeth, hair, and sterling silver. Aside from rings, she also makes necklaces, earrings, purses and more.
All works are handmade in Melbourne, with sterling silver, human hair and human teeth. Human teeth are locally donated and sterilised, and human hair is either locally donated or sourced from India and China.
Teeth are particularly difficult to come by, so any donations are gratefully accepted.

Hmmm, it just makes me wonder what other body parts this chic is hiding in her basement. :-O
I think i just threw up in my mouth a little.
Donated hair from China? Most likely taken from prisoners or homeless people and sold to this company.
These accessories are just EWW.
