Black Bear Tooth with Turquoise Accent - Copper Electroformed Necklace

***This item can only be shipped in the United States. Some states have restrictions on buying or possessing animal parts. Buyer is responsible for checking their state regulations prior to purchasing.*** 

This piece features a real black bear canine tooth and genuine Arizona turquoise cabbed by local Montana Lapidarist Andrew Bouschor. The tooth is copper electroformed then given an antique patina finish and sealed with Protectaclear. 

Pendant is approximately 2.7 inches long, 1 inch wide, and rests on a 24 inch patterned antique copper plated steel cable chain. 

Due to the natural material of teeth, you may see chips, scuffs, and wear in the enamel. I do my best to photograph all of the features so you know exactly what to expect. Keep in mind a bear used these teeth before they became jewelry!

I believe when we carry animal parts with us we are welcoming the spirit and symbolism of that animal into our life; embodying the strengths of that animal requires respecting and honoring it. If you are drawn to wearing bear tooth jewelry, I encourage you to look into the spiritual meaning of the bear and how you wish to apply Bear's strengths into your life.
