Etsy Find: Porcelain Skull, Gold Fronts

Add this porcelain beaver skull to your mantle piece this fall for a stylish, PETA friendly touch. Christine Facella, the craftsperson behind the assortment of porcelain skulls draws for the Museum of Natural History on the side and gets spare skulls from the Smithsonian and Maxilla and Mandible–ethically obtained of course–to work with in her Brooklyn studio. The porcelain skull features 18K gold teeth and will run you $110.  25 percent of the proceeds benefit Beetle and Flor, an organization that helps under-served communities that rely on making crafts as a living. See more from the “North American Wildlife” collection after the jump. Archaeology never looked this good.
