Sometimes the things we want aren't particularly useful and don't make much sense. Take these bird feet, for example. We can't really think anything to do with them except put them on our mantle and stare at them, but every time we see them we want them a little more.
Sometimes getting something pretty to look at is enough of a reason for spending money though.

If they are heavy enough, they would make great bookends. Or you could have them sticking out from under a potted plant as an homage to The Wizard of Oz.
Could be an excellent back-scratcher. Just saying....
I remember clipping these feet out from an article in the Times or somewhere a few months ago -- does anyone remember? it was a piece showing a bunch of things that one might want just because they were wonderful. I love the feet.
Reminds me to go for dim sum soon!
Put a birdhouse on top and make a Baba Yaga cottage!
i love these!!
$16.. go for it. maybe stick Barbie's head on it.. just for extra randomness.
I love these!
the designer's name is Swallow?
omg mrjones! My mom bought me a book with baba yaga in it when I was younger, and I loved it. It's fun to see someone else that knows who she is!
Also, I love these, and prefer the colors other than gold.
Reminds me too much of dim sum in Chinatown.
What if we etched bird feet into an acrylic block and made it a bud vase?
creepy
I love 99% of the stuff at Rare Device.
Still.... WHY????
..in another universe there are birds decorating their nests with human feet..
