Description

This lovely wire-wrapped pendant is made with a polished woolly mammoth tusk ivory cabochon and natural, faceted aquamarine stones, set in solid Sterling silver wire with herringbone weave accents. This gorgeous, handcrafted piece, which comes suspended on an 18"-long Sterling silver chain, is a large pendant, measuring 47x35x15mm (1.9" x 1.4" x 0.6") and is sure to attract compliments wherever you choose to wear it. Every piece of mammoth tusk ivory is unique so each pendant is one of a kind and will never be replicated.

Most woolly mammoths went extinct 10,000 years ago, at the end of the Pleistocene epoch, with isolated populations persisting on St. Paul Island andWrangel Island until about 6,400 and 4,000 years ago, respectively, at which point, they disappeared completely from the face of the Earth. Most likely, climate change (& associated loss of habitat) and hunting by humans led to their extinction. People have been using mammoth tusk ivory for a variety of applications, from tools to art, ever since.

Your pendant will ship in a lovely gift box with insurance and international tracking included. There won't ever be another piece like this.
