Looks like the wall of hands from the movie "Labyrinth".

Well that's certainly different. I've been trying to find a mannequin hand to use as a pipe rest on the table beside my chair. I think it would work well and be a real conversation starter. :D

I'm not sure why, but I find it terribly unsettling.

Well said.

The fingers do look quite real though. Adds to the creepiness maybe. So bad it's good.

I'm surprised no one noticed that the stem on the pipe is turned the wrong way!
Other than that, after just having gotten into season 5 of 'The Walking Dead' it's looks rather unsettling.

Only way it'd fit into the holder! And, yes, the digits look a bit uncomfortable, if not severed.
I started watching Fear TWD. Anyone else?

I store some pipes with the stem turned like that also, after seeing that a lot of old timers & Europeans doing so. Keeps some shapes from falling out. Took a jig saw to a rack to cut the front of the round top out so they could lay in without turning stems.

Sorta like, "The Brits & Bahamians drive on the wrong side of the street!"

Disembodied fingers to hold your pipes, sublime, creepy, odd, unsettling. Yeah... I kinda like it! :twisted:

Doesn't surprise me considering the avatar you have! Sorry, I just couldn't pass that up. :wink:

I'm not sure why, but I think it's the signet ring that breaks the creepy camel's back for me. If it were just anatomically correct fingers that would be one thing but the ring suggests it's a specific persons fingers.

I didn't even notice the signet ring. I thought that finger was broken or flawed at first glance. Regardless, it looks like something you'd find in a serial killer's house. It's just missing a layer of human skin.
