The ethnic masks collection is in another room - however there is a genuine human skull in the books cabinet near the records cabinet.
As for s shrunken head - all the ones offered for sale during the last 50 years or so were fakes - for a real one you will have to travel with a lot of cash to certain places in the Amazon and have the right contacts to be able to order a shrunken head - new - not a vintage one - but still the real thing made in the traditional way.
My 5 attempts to make a shrunken head failed - and my wife was terribly pissed off and I had to buy for her new cooking pots (fucking expensive) - so I gave up on making one for the time being :(
I apologize for exaggerating.
I did not make 5 attempts at shrinking heads - only 3 - and they all failed - the part about my wife and her pots was not exaggerated.
I wish we had a proper house brother - with a small garden and a small graveyard - would have made life way more easy - we live on the third floor in a small flat in an old apartments building - we bought the flat back in the early 90's - so I try to make the most of it.
Respect back from Israel.

Thanks mate - are you familiar with the term Cabinet of curiosities ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinet_of_curiosities
In the past the word Cabinet meant room. :)

HaHa...don't you just hate it when the missus won't let you use her pots to shrink heads in.
I love your posts Nightrider, and love seeing pics of your amazing house. Keep up the good work brother. Respect from Australia.

Ok...just from the pictures you've posted I never got the impression it was only an apartment. Looks amazing all the same.

Thank you - with some sense for design even with a modest budget a lot can be achieved if you have the patience to hunt for the right stuff.
