PNUT Jewelry anatomical heart charmGold and silver charms that offer something for everyone from ice cream cones to brains. Brass knuckles, hearts, grenades, bowling pins, snubnosed pistols, wisdom teeth, keys, tiny little pumpkins, the knives and scissors would make cute gifts for chefs and hairdressers. Also necklaces and bracelets where the charms are worked into the chain, cufflinks, and rings where the cupcakes are sprinkled with diamonds.

The Black Wardrobe retro gothic femme fatale dressThis catalog approaches goth strictly from a femme fatale point of view. The tight, wiggly silhouettes are all dark, dark, dark, the skirts high-waisted and the necklines curving to show off the decolletage. The only jewels here are brooches – black widow spiders, covered in lace and rhinestones.

Dracolite pagan medieval leaf necklaceA big catalog of medieval jewelry, where Celtic swirls, gothic spiders, and pagan moons are blown up bold and ornate and sprinkled with crystals. Statement pendants of the ren-faire variety, rings of twisted silver, handflowers and headdresses, and the unusual inclusion of chain belts, which are like big glittery necklaces for the waist. The clothing updates historical dress with a little goth detailing – good stuff for men here – along with wedding gowns and a little mystical leather.

Finders Creepers Eric PigorsA Des Moines art gallery specializing in the dark and morbid. Shameless pulp, unsettling black and white photography, surrealistic cartooning, the styles are diverse with a welcoming vibe towards outsider artists. Besides signed prints, they also showcase other horrific wares: monster masks, horror movie tees and toys, scream-filled pop art pendants, body jewelry that leans towards the demonic, evil dolls, and if you’re in the area, the in-person items include such delights as a “vintage case full of dead stuff.”

VanDoll Clothing Co. tattoo pinup posterA tiny line of rockabilly tees and posters adorned with pinup chicks, sporting tattoos and up-to-no-good expressions. There’s also a little bit of rehabbed OOAK-wear and the jewelry page eschews any sparkle in favor of brass knuckles and assault weapons.

Tattooed Steel

Tattooed Steel graffiti cuff braceletGraffiti, horror, pop art, and old-school ink etched onto silver metal cuffs, belt buckles, titanium rings, and military tags. The shiny little bits of canvas cover a wide range of tastes, from slices of urban landscapes to intricate mandalas, snarling comic-book demons to bursts of flowers – some of them in color. Tees, too. Thanks, Miko!

Princess Madison retro veiled hatFripperies combining Victorian propriety with burlesque tease, resulting in decadent cancan accessorization. Lots of headpieces in fascinator clips, long black veils, and flowery little hats trimmed with netted veils and trailing ribbons. Neckwear is also abundant in ruffled lace chokers and vampire-aristocrat ascots, and it’s a good place if you like your stuff studded with cameos.
