To the horror of my mom and the sales associate at the

To the horror of my mom and the sales associate at the Salvation Army, I had the distinct pleasure of scoring a truly terrifying and spectacular Goat pendant recently. I will admit, it looked like something you might find left behind in a haunted house...or in my personal jewelry collection, which is where it now lives. Turns out, the big, beautiful vintage necklace that no one wanted was designed some time in the '70s by Razza (it's signed), a designer that specialized in super-sized animal pendants and Zodiac-inspired jewels (very current-day Pamela Love). It inspired me to hunt down more dangerously chic animal-inspired pieces that are way more Wild Kingdom than Hello Kitty. Check out a few of our other questionably cool eBay finds.

1. Vintage Razza Lion Necklace—This one isn't signed, but the hugeness and KOL ("kooky old lady") vibe is right on the money. Starting price: $24.99. Check it out here...

2. Vintage Razza Bull Necklace—A great piece for all you daring Taureans out there. Starting price: $16.28. Check it out here...

3. Vintage Gold & Enamel Ring—Pricier but reminds me of the costume jewels that the big design houses like Dior and YSL used to craft. Starting price: $556.50. Check it out here...

4. Vintage Brass Tiger Ring—I'm not a fan of overseas shipping rates, but this ring would be worth it. Starting price: $45. Check it out here...

5. Vintage Razza Goat Necklace—I found the same one in gold...with one one eye missing. Starting price: $64.77. Check it out here...

6. Vintage Leopard Necklace—I'm going to have to go with a Rad or Bad on this one. Couldn't leave it out, tho. The mannequin looks like Madam, non? Starting price: $35. Check it out here...
