INTRICATELY HAND CARVED OCTOPUS TENTACLE SWIRL BEAD!!
This is for one hand carved octopus bone bead. Each bead is unique and spectacular in its own way. The detailing is exquisitely executed down to the tiniest of details. It is a three-dimensional bead that leaps out into the open space beyond. From any angle this bead is truly extraordinary. This rare bead will add personality to your custom piece! Don't miss out on this astonishing bead!!!! This octopus bead is drilled from the head to between the tentacles.
The material comes from domestic cow or buffalo bone; both are used as draft animals (for example, to plow muddy rice paddies) and are consumed as food. They are highly valued and are not dispatched only for their horns or bones; these have an incredibly small value compared with that of a living animal. Water buffalo and Ox bone are obtained after death, and since the cultures from which they are attained believe in utilizing the whole animal, nothing goes to waste, and thus the animal is honored more fully.
NOTE: Your bead will be selected from those imaged.
