Bonework

Many of the Shamans tools were made out of bone, such as soul catchers, amulets, pendants and head dresses, called a “Shaman`s Crown”. The
bone work is carved and inlaid with abalone shell. The objects are made from natural bone from many animals including mammoths, or from antler, or teeth.

No walrus or elephant ivory is used.
