The Anatomica Heart Necklace is the work of Vanda of Paraphernalia. Everything she sells is gorgeous. That heart was the inspiration for my own attempt at an anatomically correct shrinky dink heart (it's in the upper left-hand side in this photo). But while hers is witty and only a tiny bit disturbing, mine looks like you've actually got a piece of human tissue dangling from your neck. Not the look I was going for at all. I especially love the contrast between the cheap, tacky material and the delicate, slightly disturbing Victorian imagery she uses. There's something very steampunk about it.
