Product Overview
This beautiful citrine and silver bee pendant is carved from fossilized ivory and set with a mixed metal treatment that encapsulates the intrepid bee's minuscule beauty.
The body of the bee is hand carved from fossilized walrus ivory, which is 500-3,000 years old. It comes from St. Lawrence Island, Alaska, where the native Yupik have exclusive rights to gather and sell this ancient material.
