Dragonfly Pendant

Dragonflies have four wings, each of which can be moved independently! This is part of what makes them such skilled, agile fliers. They are precision hunters, capable of nabbing insects out of the air while hovering, flying backward or any which way. In many parts of the world dragonflies are good luck, symbolizing change and self-realization. Dragonflies are magical little creatures and it's always a joy to see one zipping through the air.
This elegant pendant features intricate hand-worked sterling silver, New Zealand paua shell, a type of abalone found only in Kiwi waters, and a hand-carved ancient mammoth beaded body. The carving for this pendant is carved from fossilized mammoth ivory that lay buries in the permafrost for tens of thousands of years. Fossilized mammoth ivory is a finite material and prized for its soft cream color that makes it ideal for heirloom jewelry that will be enjoyed for generations.
