The image shown is of the carved ivory pendant's front and back view - both are beautifully detailed and feature fossilized mammoth ivory in varying tones. Due to the organic nature of this material, no two mammoth ivory necklace colorings will be identical, and your pendant colors will vary from the colors pictured here.
The arero, or pointed tongue, of this Maori spear design is hand caved from fossilized mammoth ivory tusk. This ancient ivory is over 15,000 years old, and it has spent much of its life buried in permafrost or underground where minerals color it the soft cream to rich browns that are its signature. Ancient mammoth ivory is prized the world over as a gorgeous focal point for carved ivory jewelry and other works of art.
The upoko, or head, of this Maori spear design features a mixed metal treatment of 14k gold fill and sterling silver, giving this piece an added richness and variegated interest. .
This pendant comes with an 18" sterling silver 1.1 mm box chain with a lobster clasp.
