More anatomical Paraphernalia!
Lately I’ve been intrigued and excited by the amount of anatomical products out there, from t-shirts to tiny anatomical model toys. Yes kids, anatomy is cool.
Now, thanks to another one of my readers, I’ve been pointed to Paraphernalia, a little studio in Manchester, UK producing handmade anatomical necklaces. The owner, Ms. Vanda, makes each necklace using vintage illustrations, printed and cut plastic, and silver-plated chains. The whole idea and the illustrations are fantastic!
The Anatomica collection features old anatomical drawings and woodcuts of a variety of organs and body parts. It was our first collection! Currently part of the collection are a Heart (pictured), a Brain, a Skull, a Cochlea, a Molar, and a Ribcage.
Her website is just lovely and she also has a variety of other necklaces available. Be sure to have a look!

Wow those necklaces are great and unique! Perfect for those people who are into weird stuff and unusual things…
Hi,
I found a set of medical books published 1888. They include extensive illustrations and sepia plates, The bindings are not in great shape but the interior of the books are in excellent condition. I would like to cut the illustrations out and frame some of them, but I don’t want to destroy the book if it is valuable in tact. Do you have any thoughts on this?
Thanks
Marybeth
