Own a piece of history……. This necklace is created with vintage and antique beads. It boasts vintage brass and bronze metal beads, ancient Hebron Kano beads (circa 1800), and fossilized Stegodon carved beads. The pendant is a unique, one of a kind, soldered piece of buffalo horn.
About the fossilized Stegodon beads: These unusual beads are individually carved from fossilized Stegodon, an ancient animal from the Proboscidea family. These trunk-bearing mammal creatures inhabited areas near the Solo River in central Java from 11.6 mya to late Pleistocene, with some records suggesting they may have survived up until four millennium ago. The name for stegodon comes from the Greek word "stegein," which roughly translates to "roofed tooth," a testament to the creature's distinctive molars. These special beads measure approximately 14-15 in diameter. Own a piece of mammal history with these fun treasures
