Odd Bird Domino Pendants by Ami Kealoha
Printed and then hand-colored onto dominoes, each of these one-of-a-kind pendants features an image on one side—from a sweetly ironic diamond ring to the subtle visual pun of the four-leaf clover (pictured above left, click for detail). The other side reveals a heart-shaped finding for those who prefer to wear their heart somewhere other than on their sleeve—our one concession to today's holiday. Made by the Toronto-based Odd Bird, each domino is $36 from Chocosho.
