Carved Ivory Pendant Silver Bird Jewelry

Dawn is a time of renewal and new beginnings, both of which are lovingly captured in Zealandia's Dawn Fight flying bird necklace. This fossilized walrus ivory pendant was dreamed up with suspended movement in mind. Its soaring bird and billowing clouds evoke that snapshot moment between wing beats.

The flying bird is hand carved from ancient walrus ivory that is unearthed by natural erosion and gathered by native peoples for use in jewelry and fine crafts. The natural caramel to cocoa colorings in fossilized ivory are complemented by rich amber in this piece.

Zealandia jewelry is often presented in a unique combination of ancient ivory, fine sterling silver, and semi-precious stone accents that create a picture quality work of wearable art.
