They are not actually as gruesome as they appear, but the Scott Nelles 'Hand of the Artist' wine stoppers will no doubt double as a dinner party conversation piece.
The tops, made to plug your average vino vessel, are curious accessories made by the brilliant master of bronze casting. He decided to put his personal touch on one of his creations by casting each of his left fingers, as he is a left-handed artist. The stoppers can be purchased via Nelles Etsy site, but be warned, if you're looking to order the middle finger it's naturally in high demand.
Pop a Scott Nelles 'Hand of the Artist' polished pointer finger into your next bottle of Pinot and all eyes will be on your alcohol's attention-worthy adornments.
