Antique Bone Tooth Amulet Necklace
This striking necklace features a carved bone tooth pendant, likely sourced from an animal and repurposed as a protective amulet. The tooth is suspended from a simple cord, suggesting a tribal or ethnographic origin. The carving appears to be hand-worked, adding to the unique character of this piece. The natural patina and wear suggest considerable age and a history of being worn or carried.
Condition and Collectibility
The bone tooth shows signs of age and wear, including minor chips and surface imperfections, consistent with its age and likely use. The cord is also aged and shows wear. This necklace would appeal to collectors of tribal art, ethnographic jewellery, or antique amulets. Its unique character and apparent age make it a fascinating piece with a story to tell.
