This stunning necklace is hard to describe because it is so very unique and awesome! Made of the fossil, Orthoceras, this necklace is something you will probably not ever see again. Orthoceras is a fossil, over 400 million years old. It is extinct, but related to the squid. Orthoceras have been found in North America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. Each of these fossils (there are 32 of them) have been hand bezeled into .925 Sterling Silver, then joined on the back to make a rather large, bib type necklace. It measures 24" in length, but the silver loops on the back make it adjustable, so you can wear it shorter. The longest Orthoceras in the middle is over 2 1/2" long. It is as fascinating as it is different. Truly a unique statement piece that you will be proud to own!
