Offered: Custom Carved Fool's Bauble
Offer: Because no fool should be without one, I am offering for auction -- a custom carved fool's bauble (i.e., a mock scepter carried by a court jester). Although a fool and his money may soon be parted, a fool always tried to keep his head. Now you, too, can have your very own custom carved fool's bauble mini-me that can say all of the things that you always wanted to say, but never dared.
You choose the color scheme for the motley (fool's outfit) and send me a photograph to serve as the model for the carving, and I'll make it for you. The bauble, including stick, is about 15 inches in length, while the carved head is only about 3 inches from the base of the neck to the top of the hair (or no hair, as desired).
Below are samples of fool's baubles I have made, including one shown in representative fool's motley:
Other examples of my carvings can be viewed at my livejournal page:

Delivery: Your fool's bauble will be sent out no later than November 15th.
Minimum bid: $50
Note: Whoever gets this will have to send me a clear photograph of the model for the bauble.
