Extinct Fossil Mammoth Ivory Rose Pendant Necklace Sterling Silver
Product Description
Extinct Fossil Mammoth Ivory Rose Pendant Necklace Sterling Silver
This rose carving was made from ancient fossil Mammoth Ivory that lay buried in the snows of Alaska for over 10,000 years. The yearly melting of the snow and the re-mineralization through time has given the mammoth ivory it's unique color. The ivory was unearthed by Eskimos and carved by a master carver, in Alaska.
This carved mammoth ivory has been hand wire wrapped in sterling silver and accented with an intricate Victorian style bail.
Size: 1 5/8" L X 1" W X 1/4" D, 18" quality Sterling Silver chain included!
Note: The woolly mammoth coexisted with early humans. They used its bones and tusks for making art and tools as well as for food. Mammoths disappeared from its mainland range at the end of the Pleistocene, some 10,000 years ago. Some mammoths survived on St. Paul Island until about 5,600 years ago and on Wrangel Island until 4,000 years ago. Woolly mammoths were hunted to extinction by early humans. Climate change and the shrinkage of habitat finally overtook the last surviving individuals.
Mammoth ivory can be identified from other types of ivory. Its unique tent-shaped structures are called "Lines of Schreger" and are characteristically lines found only in elephant and mammoth ivory. The lines make a unique crosshatch pattern and are commonly referred to as cross-hatchings. The two species have variations in the angles in the pattern of the distinctly characteristic Schreger Lines. When these lines are less then 100 degrees then it is mammoth/mastodon ivory. When these lines are greater than 100 degrees then it is elephant ivory. There are a few other ways to determine the difference between the two, as well.
We certify that this is mammoth fossil ivory from extinct woolly mammoths that died out over 10,000 years ago, and were unearthed in Alaska. This mammoth ivory does not fall under the same bans and laws as other ivory. The fossilized tusks and teeth of extinct Mammoths are legally collected in many countries where they are found, including the United States, Canada, Russia and others. Fossil ivory has been legally used in the manufacture of jewelry since 1840. Since it is fossil ivory and comes from the extinct mammoth it can be sold legally for commercial purposes, such as for carvings and jewelry.
We do not ship to New Jersey or New York state due to laws implemented for those states banning any ivory sales, including fossil ivory.
Our eco-conscious jewelry is shipped with a Certificate of Authenticity, a description about the woolly mammoth, an attractive jewelry box and a 16- 18" adjustable sterling silver quality chain.
