About Ivory and Bone

There are many natural and synthetic items used in the construction of jewellery items and amongst these are ivory and bone. The international trade in ivory is now restricted in order to protect endangered species from poachers. However there are still plenty of vintage items available, as well as items made from bone and synthetic materials. 

This fossilized resin was often transported over long distances through glacial action, to reach various places in Poland, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia and Germany. It even travelled as far as the eastern shores of the British Isles, to Jutland and southern shores of Scandinavia.
The fossil beaches of the Baltic Sea are often erroneously associated with the origin of Amber, but they are in fact the final stop in the materials long journey. There are many natural and synthetic items used in the construction of jewellery items and amongst these are ivoryelephant and bone.
