At first I thought it to be really weird, but after a while it kinda grew on me because of the stone itself. Still not sure though...what say you??

    Not something I'd be interested in owning, but I'll give credit in that it definitely takes some skill and talent to produce something like that from a chunk of stone.

    Im just being honest since you asked.

    I could 3D print that for less than $3.

    We have a Jasper mine closeby. If I need one I will go out and bring me back a piece and start whittling one.

    Interesting, this artist/seller is 20 minutes away... A carving like that takes some time, skill, and patience. He really needs to learn/use just a couple HTML commands to make his listing much more readable though.

    For a solid stone scull like that I'd say it's the scull of a former member of the GB forum that someone dug up.
