If you feel like you’ve run out of body parts to accessorize, you may want to check out “Mundstück” a line of chin jewelry designed by German company MYL Berlin.
As you can see in the photos, Mundstück (Mouthpiece) is a piece of metal designed to be worn on the chin. Only it doesn’t require any piercing, instead it attaches to the inside of the wearer’s lower lip via two blunt hooks. It’s apparently quite comfortable to wear, doesn’t impede the wearer’s speech at all, and can even be worn when eating. And best of all, it helps you stand out, which is why anyone would wear something like this in the first place, isn’t it?
“Mundstück 2 is a signature MYL piece; structured, chic and daring, this piece compliments your chin and lower lip,” the MYL Berlin website states. “With its minimal design and lightweight material, it nestles perfectly on your lip without applying pressure or hindering your mobility. Available in three colors, this piece is a must-have.”

The Mundstück line has apparently been around for a while, or at least long enough for it to consist of three variants, the Mundstück 1, 2 and 3. They are all made of stainless steel and come in the same three colors: black, gold or silver.

“The design of Mundstück 1 does not interfere with your daily life or your party, as you can eat, drink and talk without any limitations,” an Instagram post by MYL Berlin reads. “It doesn’t touch or scratch your teeth, nor does it fit so tightly that it rubs your skin.”

Prices for Mundstück mouth/chin jewelry range from $75 for the smaller Mundstück3, all the way to $140 for the more ostentatious Mundstück 2, with the Mundstück 3 somewhere in the middle at $113.

While not as bizarre as these human ivory accessories, the Mundstück mouthpieces are definitely among the most unique pieces of jewelry we’ve ever covered here on Oddity Central.
