작품 상세

A wolverine claw necklace and matching drop earrings, a superb example of Alaska Native craftsmanship. The necklace features seven wolverine claws, each topped with three generously sized slices of polished baleen, walrus tusk, and mammoth tusk. Claws are set apart with five graduated walrus tusk beads, and all is mounted upon a corded leather necklace terminating in a silver-tone lobster clasp. The matching drop earrings feature the same claw design, albeit with a thicker section of walrus tusk sandwiched between the baleen and mammoth tusk; earrings feature silver-tone fish hook findings. Necklace measures approximately 26" long.
