Fossilized Megalodon Tooth Necklace with Titanium Aura Quartz

I love creating Megalodon necklaces. Working with a piece of history is truly magical. The scientific name, Carcharocles megalodon, means "giant tooth." They are considered to be the largest shark, as well as the largest fish, that ever lived. The earliest megalodon fossils (Otodus megalodon, previously known as Carcharodon or Carcharocles megalodon) date to 20 million years ago. For the next 13 million years the enormous shark dominated the oceans until becoming extinct a mere 2.6 million years ago.

This massive tooth is 3.0" x 3.5", and weighs 5.6 ounces. Purple woven cord measures 18".

The scientific and intricate process used to add layers of lovely copper is called electroforming. This process can be unpredictable and can take hours to days to complete store just one wearable. There may be small perfect imperfections in the copper and it may darken over time. Each piece has been cleansed and sealed with you in mind.
