$42.00
// CLASSIFIED ARTIFACT — CASE 041
STATUS: VERIFIED
CLEARANCE: PUBLIC DOMAIN
The archives confirm what most timelines obscure: the guillotine remained France’s official execution method until 1977.
That’s the same year Star Wars hit theaters.
Medieval machinery and sci-fi laser swords—coexisting.
This piece features an embroidered guillotine insignia pulled directly from the Dept. of Obscure field files. Designed for quiet flexing, subtle disturbance, and starting conversations in checkout lines.
