Elk Teeth Necklace & Earrings (Imitation Teeth/Resin)

This over the head necklace is hand strung with quality beads on durable fishing wire rated to withstand up to 40lbs to ensure a long lasting piece. The patterns were carefully curated to reflect aspects of modern and traditional Blackfoot styles and includes imitation elk teeth casted in various shapes and sizes. This set will also include imitation elk teeth earrings.

Not only is it more cost effective to use imitation elk teeth to allow more accessibility to consumers, it is also more friendly to the elk. Since elk can only produce (2) ivory teeth each, I would need to kill (7) elk to get this same result, which is not as practical in today’s day with the lack of communal hunting events and is the reason elk teeth are so treasured today. Due to the availability of other food sources, hunting is not as prevalent as it was in the past. A hunter today would be lucky to kill (1) elk per season. You will see a noticeable difference in the price when comparing other real elk teeth items listed on the site.
