These bags, embossed with images of human faces, are more than a little creepy, yet somehow they ooze appeal. The quirky totes were created by Yael Mer who makes the mask-like bags in different shapes and colours.
At first glance, you might not even realize they bare an image of a face, under the right lighting, however, shadows are created to draw attention to the different depths of the facial structures, bringing the handbags to life.
