Description
This beautifully carved pendant features four elements of double wolf/fish/man/eagle. Positioned at the top is hunting wolf with a fish in its mouth, the face of a proud man is positioned below while on the side another wolf looks up towards its mate. The ivory is a wonderful toffee to milk chocolate colour with streaks of green through its paler side. The back solid silver scroll work is patterned and of high quality hand made construction. The bail is hinged. This is a one-off both in terms of the unique ivory colour and in the skill of the individual carving.
