World’s Ugliest Pottery by Lucky Stradley

Made by Lucky Stradley and sold in her Etsy store, these weird artworks really makes you think about the strange nature of human beings, as it seems lots of them are actually buying these crimes against good taste. And the artist is happy to oblige. In her own words: “I have been making a living with my art since I turned 21 years old. Now that’s a long time. I discovered the wonderful world of making faces on functional pottery in May of 2009. I love mud. I love making faces. I love making faces in the mud. Gosh, I am the happiest when I have mud all over my hands and my apron and a cute little ugly face is looking back at me from the mud.”

Though the means of printing became much more accessible, the tradition survives because of its extremely unique entertainment value. Scroll down to see some of the best (worst?) examples!

This Brush You Hold With Your Mouth Lets You Lick Your Cat

Sometimes the idea of making something so weird outweighs the actual usefulness of the item. Take for instance this cat brush that you hold in your mouth and use it by fake licking your cat with each stroke of the giant tongue brush sticking out of your mouth.
