Our classic prehistoric woolly mammoth ivory 6mm round bead necklace is finished with a mammoth ivory clasp and may feature natural tones of cream, tan, and/ or brown. Each piece is unique due to the natural coloration of our fossil tusk materials.

Prehistoric woolly mammoth ivory is found by chance in the cold northern regions of Alaska, Canada, Russia, and Siberia. Fossil tusks may range in age from 10,000 to 200,00 years, and natural colors vary depending upon what minerals the tusk laid next to and for how many tens of thousands of years.

*Please note that natural tones will vary from piece to piece in shades of cream, tan, and/ or brown due to the unique and aged nature of our fossil materials. If you are looking for cream tones only, please email [email protected] for availability and a quote.

About Ivory Jacks
Ivory Jacks has been family-owned and operated for over 40 years! Ivory Jacks specializes in eco-conscious prehistoric woolly mammoth ivory & tooth, fossil walrus ivory, vintage ebony wood, and naturally shed moose antler jewelry.

As a child, Kurt Tripp, co-owner and Ivory Jacks visionary, would see mammoth tusks that had been unearthed by the spring floods on the banks of the Yukon River near his childhood home of Fairbanks, Alaska. Kurt would play around these immense tusks and bones that had been collected by his grandfather, a riverboat pilot, and his father, an avid rock hound, and outdoorsman. He was curious about what they were and where they came from, how long they had been buried and what the massive creature looked like that had carried them. This profound fascination ultimately led to the business he would create with his wife, Francine, years later.

Ivory Jacks has grown over the years and currently carries over a thousand unique styles of jewelry, knives, cufflinks, ulus, art carvings, and more. The popular Ivory Jacks jewelry line incorporates mammoth and fossil walrus ivories, naturally shed moose antler, mammoth tooth, 14k gold, sterling silver, and precious and semi-precious stones. Pieces are available both set, for boutiques and gift shops and unset, for jewelry designers.

Kurt and Francine, co-owners of Ivory jacks live in the Pacific Northwest near Seattle. Their daughter, Courtney, is the lead Ivory Jacks eco-conscious jewelry designer.
