Bear Claw and Howlite Necklace

This necklace is made from a real bear claw purchased at a native craft supply store and cleaned by me. Claw is approximately 2 inches in length and the necklace itself is 20 inches. The claw has been left in its natural state which means that it may have a few minor scratches. Only the base has been coated in a clear, non-yellowing finish. The stones are howlite chips of different shapes and sizes which does give this piece a bit of weight. Closes with a hook and eye clasp.

SOLD.

Thank you! I'll probably be doing a few more like this since I like they way bear claws and stones look together.

Oh, gorgeous! I love how you've put this together. What craft store did you find this in?

Thank you! I've been using just simple stone chips with my bear claws because I'm not super creative when it comes to these kind of things. I got the claws from Iroqrafts at the Six Nations of the Grand River Reservation. The large ones sell quickly, but they usually always have small available. They're cheap, but have a lot of raw flesh on them. I can't remember how far away you are from here, but if you need some, we can always work something out for next time I'm there. :) I think they ship as well.

Ah, awesome. I'm in London, so I think it's about a half hour from here. I've been there, but it was *years* ago. I'll have to try to remember how to get there! C=
