CARVED Dragon Pendant with Sterling Silver Findings!
This dragon reminds me of those in Game of Thrones... getting ready to breath fire on your enemies! The carving is amazing and the use of onyx for the eye really brings out the bone.
NOTE: Images do not reflect number and size. Please see detail and table for information.
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.

Material Type: Bone (Domestic Water Buffalo - Bubalus bubalis)
Size: 29x22x5mm (Dragon) 6mm (Bail Opening) 1 5/8" (Long)
Color: Bone & Black & Silver
