St. Joseph Museums

The image features two small, quirky charms or pendants, each with an expressive face. On the left, there's a figure resembling a small hut with a wide-brimmed roof, decorated in earthy tones, and sporting a face with bulging eyes that protrude in a cartoonish manner. The charm has a loop for attachment. On the right, a cylindrical orange charm with a similar face is depicted, featuring a textured surface. Both have exaggerated facial features and appear to be made from a crafted material, possibly plastic or resin, and they sit on a textured white surface.
