My personal collection didn't fit in the Rei tin anymore. I intend to stain and line this box, along with making a slight cushion for the bottom. This doesn't include my own teeth, ones from friends, and ones from the 1800s. I've put significantly more teeth into my art/jewelry than I've kept, unfortunately.

Genuine Beaver Tooth Necklace

Tooth found by a local forest explorer

This necklace is made with wood and glass beads. It features a genuine beaver tooth! The beaver is a very important animal that symbolizes creativity, motivation, hard work, and cooperation. Without others, one lone beaver could never build a dam. The beaver teaches us that we need others to succeed, and that it is always ok to ask for help when you need it. The colors define the beaver; the brown represents the beaver itself. The tan/orange represents the teeth of the beaver, which get their color from the iron-rich coating of enamel that forms to protect their teeth. The white symbolizes the spirit of the beaver, which we can call upon when we need help with motivation and cooperation. Finally, the blue represents the water that the beavers depend on for their survival, that we all depend on for our survival. This necklace is perfect for hard workers and bosses/managers, including mothers!
