The collection was originally assembled by Yoshiko Hayama who discovered rocks that he compared to E.T., Elvis Presley, Jesus, Gorbachev, Nemo, and other personages. His only requirement is that every rock be formed by natural processes.

Great! Whenever I am on a beach I always end up searching for interesting stones.
Maybe my doppelgänger resides there—I've been called a blockhead.
They remind me of the little forest spirits in Miyazaki's movie, "Spirited Away".
I love learning about this. I have a stone with a face that my dog fished out of the river about 12 years ago. I've always loved it and have it propped up in my outdoor shower. The face is so expressive - half humorous half grimacing. How great to see a whole collection of these stones.
Pareidolia!
I have one. It looks like a head of a person biting on a piece of something.Actually the piece is another smaller stone stuck in its mouth :).
