Macabre history, miniaturized and hung from the ear.

The frame is an open rectangle with crossbars and a round neck hole at the base. Inside it, an angled blade hangs suspended in polished silver-tone against the dark oxidized grey of the frame. It is a working guillotine in miniature, which is exactly the point. A shepherd hook ear wire connects to the frame by a jump ring, so the piece moves when you move. The drop is upright and rectangular, small enough to wear to the office, sharp enough that someone will always ask. Pin your hair up so the blade stays visible. These belong with a black slip dress and red lipstick, with a corset top and heavy boots, with velvet in autumn and bare shoulders in summer. They suit anyone whose taste runs to dark academia reading lists, French revolution history, and vampire aesthetic jewelry. One matching pair. A ready gift for a goth girlfriend, a witchy birthday, or any occasion when a card will not do.
