Fossil Mammoth Ivory Whale Fluke Necklace By Edward Lawrence Pendant Dimensions (L x W): 1.125" x 1.25", Necklace Length: 23.5"
This necklace features a whale's fluke hand carved from fossil mammoth ivory that dates 10,000 to 100,000 years old. The beauty of mammoth ivory is its warm lustrous color from being buried in the Alaskan lands soaking up the earth's minerals. In some fossils you can spot the natural veins of mammoth ivory, called schreger lines, which mimic the markings of a whale's fluke beautifully. Each of Edward Lawrence's pieces are one of a kind
“I get my ideas from the materials. Form follows function has always been a part of my technique. The whole concept is to transform the materials into something you can relate to and wear. They become a part of your life. The designs can be ethnic to modern, funky to architectural. The pieces design themselves.”
