The fossilized mammoth ivory used to carve this silver whale tail pendant is some 10,000 to over 15,000 years old, dating back to when the last of great mammoths still roamed the earth. The mammoth tusk lies in permafrost or the earth for millennia before being returned to us (often as a by-product of mining) in its current cream to deep caramel color. This wonderful material lends a touch of antiquity and rare quality to the jewelry and art works it decorates.
