I've been loving lots of trompe l'oeil tree bark looking things

I think anyone would look fantastic sporting this striking large JJ Pewter cast cheetah pin

exquisitely crafted object that I find unbelievably beautiful and powerful

Ratchet Style Old Handmade Wooden Noisemaker tourist plate mostly apparent against whiteThese old noisemakers aka clappers, clackers, battle rattles, etc. are pretty fun to wave around, with a strong motion of the arm producing a satisfying, loud thwack as the tongue slaps the side of the notched wheel as it turns (or, of course, one can just use a second hand to turn it.) A perfect, simple design solution to the need to make noise(!), it's also just a great looking object this one with boxed end stained green, and a nice turned handle.
