    that IS very strange, and more that a touch disturbing.

    No more than full masks but there are fringe people always "pushing the envelope".
    Who knows, face molds can be made on the living so he could have been just trying to shock. It was sort of sweet in a very odd way!

    While there will inevitably be some people who are disturbed by full mask sporrans made from animals, this is in an entirely different category from a sporran based on a child’s death mask.
    As Scott (Artificer) says, this is “more than a touch disturbing”.
    I would go further and say that it is profoundly chilling, which cannot be said of a full mask animal sporran.
    Regards,
