I could *easily* see myself falling head over heels for any girl brave enough to not only wear that, but to casually mention the name of it. haha.

What would you think if your significant other (or future significant other) showed up one day and told you they MADE this for you? I would most definitely wear it on my left hand and hope one of the horses lands on my ring finger. ha. oh god.

I'm just blown away by it's majesty and splendor. the one, ONE thing that would make this better? Unicorns instead of steeds.

What if they were all thestrals, a la Harry Potter?? *swoon!*

Shane, you need to come to the Yacht Rock bday party next week and party with us, you Cancer/Leo cusp guy, you! Clearly, this post demonstrates that you know how to PARTY!!!!

Holy lord! Unicorns instead of steeds? Then it would be hand decor AND a weapon. Return from Victory indeed!

dana- yes I most definitely have to attend! Plus, I'm an especially huge fan of any venue I can walk to!

Count me in, though I just realized how difficult it is to recognize people based purely on their on-line auras, I'll still be around!

char- I think the phrase "Return from Victory indeed!" is going to cause me countless innapropriate bursts of laughter at every meeting I'm in for the remainder of today.

Unicorns? Now, that's just going too far. It was tasteful until you added the unicorns.

There's nothing more tasteful than a roman chariot being pulled by a team of unicorns, riding vigorously on the great white knuckles of anyone deemed worthy of possessing such a piece of functional and fasionable jelewry.

You don't pick the unicorn jewelry, the unicorn jewelry picks you.

I think it would be a little less creepy if the little man didn't keep staring at me...and why does he look like a prepubescent boy??

That's because he's a lego man. I'd give anything if all of this was made from legos.

Did anyone else notice the middle horse has a hoof? I bet that hoof is holding down the hand model's middle finger so she can't let us know what she *really* thinks of the jewelry she is adorning.

Even odds says Bjork is the person who eventually buys this.

I'm really entranced by this thing, it's sickening.

It'd be great for new mothers who have a hard time getting their children to eat; just hold a spoon and turn the mundane ritual of eating into an ancient race to fill your baby's belly! No more of that "here comes the airplane" junk.

I want a Christmas version with Santa and reindeer, please.

As Char can attest, I'm known for my award-winning holiday accessories.

Initially I was kind of confused as to why there would only be three stallions, when clearly the average human hand has five fingers. Of course, this ignores the fact that this piece of jewelry will most likely *not* be worn by an average human. But, nonetheless, I was intrigued.

So, I did some digging. And it turns out that it was tradition in Roman days for a warrior's chariot to be pulled by three stallions when said warrior was en route to retrieve his maiden fair.

The Romans found great pleasure in the number three, and would go to great lengths to have things occur in sets of three (This is actually where the old urban legend about people dying in threes comes from). They thought that by being pulled by three stallions they would increase their changes of impressing their romantic interest of the evening.

Gary - You are too smart for this blog

Actually, I think you're supposed to wear this the day after you lose your virginity...

You're right. Three is a good number. ;)
