Hummingbird Jewelry -Fossilized Ivory Hummingbird Earrings
Hummingbirds have enchanted humans throughout history. The Aztecs wore hummingbird talismans to symbolize vigor and energy. They also believed fallen warriors would return as hummingbirds and butterflies. Hummingbirds have always fascinated us earth bound humans, who are left to gaze in wonderment as they zip about overhead. Our unique hummingbird jewelry is a nod to these thrilling flyers.
The bodies of the hummingbirds are carved by hand from fossilized mammoth ivory, which is over 15,000 years old. This ancient ivory is a precious material due to its finite supply and for its artisan revered quality. Over the centuries, permafrost or minerals in the earth have either preserved the mammoth ivory's luminous cream color or colored it in shades ranging from warm caramel to the soft cocoa. Holding a piece of mammoth ivory reminds us of the transience of life, suggesting a mysterious time long, long ago when the great mammoths still roamed the earth.
