"Unexpected Pleasures"

This pendant is lovely in the picture, but has unexpected pleasures in real life. Outside the curve of the crescent moon are more figures: a howling coyote, a cat, stars and more moons. And the solar and lunar faces are carved with great sensitivity. (I removed the leather thong, and wear this pendant on a silver chain.

"New obsession!"

I bought 2 of these sun/moon pendants for my husband and my wedding anniversary. They are GORGEOUS! I cant speak for my husband, but I wear my necklace daily and I am always fidgeting with it because it is so beautiful to look at and feels so smooth in my fingers. I will be buying more bone jewelry in the future because it is my new obsession! Not to mention a great conversation starter!

"Stellar craftmanship!! More amazing in person!"

I knew I was going to LOVE this pendant, and the detail is even more exquisite than it appears in the picture! I plan to bead a new chain for the sun and moon, because the string just doesnt do the carving justice!!! Really amazing! Id buy matching earrings if I saw them, too!! SO reasonable!!

"A magical item of beauty"

Ingeniously crafted. Most pleasing to this wearer. The chain is a bit short to go over my head. I very much like the Celtic Trinity Knot. Thanks! Gwendolyn Marie

"My favorite bone necklace!"

Have purchased many from this artist, but I didnt notice this one. It appeared in the items on the checkout sale page and I grabbed it because I recognized the artist. Little did I know it would become my favorite. I used to rescue wild turtles. My dad did before me. TY for this great piece.
