These jewelry pieces by Anna Schwamborn were created using the hair and cremated ashes of deceased loved ones. While kinda creepy, these jewelry pieces are actually pretty sentimental.

Anna Schwamborn has worked for such major fashion labels as Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood. These objects are meant to be worn near the mourner’s body as a symbol of the physical connection between the individuals even after death.

Human remains act as an important medium of remembering a passed away loved one and are some of the longest lasting and most individual natural materials. (dezeen)

While the sentiment is nice, the obvious likeness of this product to a hair doll freaks me out.

Umm, wearing someone's hair as jewelry? Does it need to be shampooed?

Oh wow. I hope my loved ones aren't into this. Isn't it bad feng shui to keep dead things in the home?
