This curved two tone shark tooth is cut from a magnificent deep green coloured piece of New Zealand Pounamu/Greenstone and is bound with a knotted natural adjustable waxed cord.
The shark tooth design represents strength. This is because the mako shark is such a resilient, strong creature that has survived on earth for thousands of years. The thinking is that by wearing a 'tooth' of the shark, it will impart some of this resilience onto the wearer.
