Diamond Tooth has you covered.
The Cher:
Platforms aren't giving you enough height? Fret not, this piece will
add a solid 6" to your statuesque figure while framing your face in
luxurious iridescent turkey feathers. Made from the saddle part of a
wild turkey, fanned out over hand-made buckram band frame, and
embellished with vintage studded jewelry and chains.
Death on Two Legs:
For the woman (or enterprising gent) who wishes to never be forgotten.
Dress to kill in this vintage buckram frame hat with a taxidermy wild
turkey wing swooped around and hugging the head. No nonsense, just
outrageous. The spotlight is on you and you alone.
The Lydia:
Thin out the herd of simpletons on a daily basis with a piece like this-
only the bravest of hearts will dare approach. Ideal for the young
woman who already knows not to suffer any fools.
A taxidermy rooster
head swirls into a nestled coil with a horsehair cushion on its
underside. He holds a giant pearl in his beak for eternity. The entire
piece is anchored to a steel headband, rendering it quite sensible for
the young lady on the go, be it cycling, dancing, or levitating with the
ghosts of deceased football players.
The Jane:
The Jane is for a quiet, practical sort of gal who can hop off her
cruiser bicycle to deliver a breached calf or present a thesis on the
benefits of counter-transference and disclosure in the therapy hour with
the same relative amount of ease. She's not a show off, look at me
type (not that there is a SINGLE thing wrong with that), she's more of
the silent but deadly type. The kind you definitely want on your side.
A taxidermy chicken wing wraps the head of an antique felt cap, embellished with vintage lace detail.
The Margaret:
The Margaret is for the reserved but stylish woman; ideal for strolling
through an apple orchard to pick apples or simply survey her domain.
The
base of this piece is an altered antique velvet cap; a chicken tail
& hide pieces frame the front. Embellished with vintage buttons,
the amount of provenance in this piece is palpable.
A Simple and easy to wear piece with maximum impact. A disc of premium,
lush iridescent turkey feathers stands straight up, anchored by a
steel head band. Sits slightly cocked to one side for asymmetrical hair
styling options. Ideal for adding height without making too much of a
splash.
Night on The Concorde:
Channel your inner classy and carefree airline attendant with this
jaunty and easily beautiful piece. Take your Coffee, Tea or Me with a
dash of modern class in a hat that can compliment long flowing locks, or
a formal work-appropriate chignon.
Taxidermy rooster wing mounted onto a felt hat base with a silk fringe tassel and fabric bow detail.
Chicken Wing Mohawk:
Add instant height and intrigue to any ensemble and hair style.
Taxidermy chicken wings fold into each-other on a hand made buckram
frame which is anchored to a steel headband, making an easy to wear
(except on windy days!) piece for any gal (or guy) who intends to stop
traffic or command a room.
Fox Tail Earcuff and
Rabbit Tail Earcuff
The tip of a fox tail dangles from a chain and attaches to the wearer
via a sterling silver ear cuff. Instantly dress up any look for the day
with this piece, while simultaneously giving yourself something soft to
handle during dull moments.
A no brainer
Raccoon Baculum Charm Necklace:
Dare to wear a Raccoon Baculum (penis bone, Texas Toothpick, etc) and
see what good juju comes your way. Women have been known to don one
while trying to conceive. Gamblers wrap a baculum in a $10 bill, tuck
it in their pocket and head to the track to clean up. They are said to
generally attract positive energy and spirits, aside from that they are
an elegant and beautiful bone to behold. This one is embellished with a
genuine Swarovski Amethyst and several snug brass jump rings. Necklace
included.
Halo Rose and Araucana Headpiece:
Fabric roses and Araucana chicken hide nestle together onto an antique
buckram halo frame to form this playful and romantic piece. A bit
Spring-like in appearance perhaps, but the right lady can work this
topper any time of year. It's easy to wear and frames the face is a
most flattering way.
The Pearl 2.0:
A second incarnation of the original Pearl hat, this one is a bit more
compact and snug against the head, ideal for riding horses or traversing
the avenue with your best "don't F with me" face.
Very no nonsense.
Taxidermy
rooster wing hugs the curve of the cap and a vintage gem holds up a
portion of the brim creating a face flattering swoop. Hat base is
vintage felt, Stetson quality.
Possum Tail Necklace:
A taxidermy Possum tail curled into an elegant swoop, and capped off
with a steel end hangs from a chain at just the right length to flatter
any decolletage. Often reviled as undesirable, creepy rodents, Opossum
actually have some their own sort of beauty as demonstrated in this
piece.
Rooster & Deer Tail Beret:
Meeting a stranger in a cafe for a clandestine exchange? Here's your
hat. Elegant and practical, with an amount of flair that will get you
noticed by the right people and deter the rest.
Taxidermy rooster
hide woven with dyed deer tail swoop around a vintage brown felt beret,
terminating in an antique charm.
Rooster Hide Visor Cap:
Make sexy eyes across the arena at that handsome Terrier breeder during
the next American Kennel Club event. Dogs and humans alike will be
drawn to you in this vintage altered velvet cap with black visor and
rooster hide.
The Harvest Queen:
This piece made its way up to Sharon Springs this year and was an
honorary guest at the Harvest Festival kicking off an entire 3 days of
celebrating all things seasonal, local and organic. Seeing as it's
crafted from a taxidermied chicken hide sourced from a farm just down
the road in Cobelskill, a repurposed vintage hat base and a handed down
magic amber button embellishment sewn on with antique suture thread, The
Harvest Queen was a perfect fit. She is full of provenance and
positive energy, an asset to any wearer.
The White Witch:
Goes perfect with a glass of champagne and an icy attitude. Altered
antique faux fur hat sprouts taxidermy chicken hide and tail from the
front top, and is embellished with vintage jewelry. A snug fit, perfect
for the Anna Wintour in your life.
Taxidermy Chicken Wing Epaulets:
I haven't listed these on etsy yet because I'd like to get more shots of them, from the underside explaining method of attachment. Basically they pin onto the shoulders of whatever the wearer' has on, like a brooch. If you're in love and don't want to wait, just email me directly at diamondtoothtaxidermist@gmail.com and we'll talk.
Thanks a bajillion to me talented and patient photographer
