Too bizarre- someone named [a href="vny!://www.blackchandelier.biz/servlet/the-121/Giant-Madagascar-Hissing-Cockroach/Detail"]Jared Gold[/a] makes living cockroach "jewelry".
From the website: [/p] [blockquote][em]If you love jewelry and you love insects you're in luck. Local fashion designer Jared Gold has both available at his Black Chandelier store in Trolley Square.[/em][/p] [em]Gold sells crystal studded brooches made from living Madagascar hissing cockroaches. [/em][/p] [em]"They're Austrian Swarovski crystals and they come in all sorts of colors and each roach has his little pattern on them so they're all individual" says the avant garde designer.[/em][/p] [em]Gold says his company buys insects from a breeder in Los Angeles. A co-worker actually sticks the crystals to the back of every bug. Its a painstaking task that involves what he calls, "a secret process."[/em][/p] [em]They go for forty dollars each, and Gold says they're selling like hotcakes. But, what will animals rights activists say?
