Wikipedia: This combination of properties cannot be realized by any 3-dimensional object in ordinary Euclidean space.

Well, not really!  

It was first created by the Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvärd in 1934.

The mathematician Roger Penrose independently devised and popularized it in the 1950s, describing it as “impossibility in its purest form”.

Penrose is absolutely correct… But you can still get it instilled in metal and very much possible to wear!

It is featured prominently in the works of artist M. C. Escher, whose earlier depictions of impossible objects partly inspired it.

Am I really not allowed to make a real object like that which will not be some sort of a projection trick like this one:

The answer is – YES I CAN, if I warp the ordinary Euclidean space, or the object itself – whichever sounds better for you!
So I did! And now you can wear it yourself – if you order one!
