bear claw necklace
« on: December 19, 2016, 08:35:27 PM »
As a Christmas gift for my son I made a necklace using the claws from a bear I shot this fall, a few elk ivories and the canines from an old bear skull. I used gemstone beads, wire and a clasp that I got at Ben Franklin. Today I finished the display plaque and thought I'd post it and show you how it turned out. Merry Christmas - Rick

Cool looking, both of them. I made one a few years back, plan on making another for the boy here shortly. This gave me some good ideas.

Merry Christmas.

Very cool.  My wife made me one for our wedding gift.  Check out snake vertebrae beads. They look great with the bear claws too. 

Well done!
