Okay, now that that's out of my system, let's discuss. When I offer a cheaper version of a designer item, I in no way mean to say that the knock-off is the same quality or prestige as the original. I *do* mean to say that the knock off is cheaper.
That being said, this piece of art is a lovely knuckle clutch that is just the right combo of classy and edgy- both things I aspire to be.

Someone somewhere did a solid job of making a hack version of the little beauty, and selling it on Amazon.
Skull Knuckle Rings Clutch at Amazon, $26.99
I haven't purchased this little guy, so I can make no reports as to its physical appearance or quality. However, any time I am inspired by a piece of couture, I immediately google the crap out of it so that I can find a similar piece for myself at a price which my (lack of) funds can afford.
Also, stores like Century 21 offer designer (and non-designer) brands at huge discounts. You can find fancy knuckle clutches there as well...
So I offer you this. It's no SMcQ, but they're cute. And cheap. And if you leave one in a cab after a night of drinking in high heels, then at least you won't be out two months rent and a piece of priceless art.
