Wile and Woolly Jewelry

Filed in archive Jewelry History by tammy on June 6, 2006

Now, I'm not advocating using ivory for jewelry here. Not only is that illegal in most countries, well, it's just down right wrong. But what about prehistoric ivory, the kind from a woolly mammoth? If nothing else, this is an interesting use of natural materials.

From CBS4 Denver: Anchorage, Alaska (AP) In Anchorage's downtown ivory shops, alongside whale baleen baskets and walrus tusk statuettes, are souvenirs made from the fossils of shaggy Ice Age beasts that died on the tundra thousands of years ago.

The bones, teeth and giant curving tusks of woolly mammoths can be found in abundance in Alaska, and the fossils of the elephant-like beasts are routinely if not always legally turned into jewelry and other curios.

Pictured is a brooch from The Import Specialist.

Add your response to Wile and Woolly Jewelry: Response from: jmhgjuy (09/17/09 11:26am) Allen Iverson broke out his newest signature shoe, the Reebok Answer XII, during the first game between the Buy Reebok Answer XII Invictus Shoes in November 2008. The Reebok Answer XII Invictus On Sale basketball shoe features a leather upper with internal mock bootie construction that provides maximum comfort. The Nike zoom BB IIreceived its design cues from Japanese-born Reebok designer Nike Zoom BB II Basketball Shoes, who also designed the Answer X. Both Winfield and Kanata have been trading off between the past three Buy Cheap Nike Zoom BB II Men's Basketball shoes to allow for a longer design window and more attention to the development process. It could be argued that Iverson�s series lost its gusto during the VI to IX era. Luckily, for Iverson and his fans, the line has been in good hands the past three years. The mid panel is also generously perforated for greater breathability and the Nike Shox Vc IV Men's Basketball Shoe Black suede toe sets off a nice balance to the simple yet sharp overall look.? The outsole features a sticky rubber wavy herringbone traction pattern and cushioning comes via DMX Ride.
