I am creating a DUNE themed shaving brush. The handle will have a desert and clear sky appearance with the Water of Life laying in the sand. I cannot decide which coin to use on the bottom. See the images below. I have 2 different House Atreides, 2 different Fremen, House Harkonnen, Paul Atreides, and Shai-Hulud.

Please let me know what you think by taking this poll.

Not for aesthetics, but if you are making your brush on the lathe, then the round coins are easier to work with and inlay.
 
It looks like it will be the sandworm. It makes sense since the Water of Life is sandworm vomit (more or less). Hopefully, a few more will chime in before I commit, as Atreides is still tied.
 
Straying a bit, but Dogwood Handcrafts makes handles with dyed wood and acrylics. I bet he (or you) might be able to create a shave handle that gives you that Arrakis feel?
