I love a good cup of tea, and the pots some tea is served from. This particular one reminds me of Noah's "(I'm A Little) Teaskull" clay skull teapot. They would both serve a delicious gloom warming cup of tea.

Henry Ryder drew this skull teapot.

Sunday Simulacra - Version 5.2
Today’s simulacra are part of everyday objects.
Ainslee from Washington said: “I noticed in the top of a Teapot at Tamarind Tree in Seattle, WA which looks hauntingly like Jack Skellington from ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’.”
Carson Talbot sent us this picture of a printer
Carol Feiner told us: “Just noticed that my wireless headphones sitting in their charger look like a skull! The blue light from the satellite receiver adds an eerie touch.”
Housekeeping C says:
Thank you all for allowing us to venture with you into your inner simulacra worlds. Keep up the great work and remember with summer / winter right around the corner keep your eyse out for rocks and ice which are some of the most popular simulacra found by our readers.
Keep sending those pictures in to our submissions address. Just keep in mind that since we only post simulacra once a week it might take a little longer than normal for it to be posted.

[Flashback Friday] #105. (I'm a little) Teaskull
Welcome to another addition of Flashback Friday.** This year the guest editors, Citizen Agent, Tatman, and myself, Azurafae, are taking turns counting down our personal favorite 17 skulls from the Original 365.25 Year. So please join us as we visit the archives and add our additional commentary on some of the original pieces.
4. #105. (I'm a little) Teaskull
Since I was a young child, I've collected tea sets. I've always liked the curves of the teapots the best. Recently, I inherited my grandmother's silver service when she moved to a smaller apartment. It includes two beautiful tea pots. In her china cabinet (I also inherited that), on the shelf above this beautiful tea set, is my skull model and some skull art. The placement combination always brings to mind this Teaskull that Noah made. I love the idea of making practical things beautiful. This captures both the curves of a skull and the curves of a teapot, very well. It's a beautiful piece.
**Flashback Friday was a weekly countdown of the fan selected top 52 skulls of Skull-A-Day 1.o. Each week during year 3.0 The Skullmaster posted the original skull along with some additional commentary in order from lowest to highest rated, with the #1 skull appearing in the last week of year 3.0, all 52 can be found here.

105. (I'm A Little) Teaskull
Sculpted Pottery Clay, Unfired (Approx. 12" x 5.5" x 7"). Once I have a chance to fire this I'll post a new image. It is potentially functional, but we'll see if it survives without cracking.
