The very mention of “Wooly mammoths”, conjures up images of icy expanses and giant furry creatures traversing the sparsely populated areas of what we now call “Home”. We have always looked to exclusive and sustainable forms of material to create and express our designs.
There is a lot of discussion of the matter of using mammoth ivory as a means to preserve and protect our elephant population. This is our standpoint as well, albeit, there are those who look at the negative aspects of using mammoth ivory…..
For one, these amount of mammoth specimens in the tundra areas is said to be in the millions! This is is very true, as these behemoths lived for aeons before they were wiped out. This allows us to have very personal glimpse into the way life was 1000s of years ago!
The magic of wearing a piece life that existed on earth aeons ago, goes beyond words! These beings are a part of our collective history, and they WILL live as part of who we are.
