Great serration on a fossilized Megalodon shark tooth is not something you take for granted. Thousands of years underground will wear most serration down to nothing, which is exactly what makes this 1 7/8 inch specimen worth stopping on. The serration along both cutting edges of this tooth is intact, sharp, and clearly defined from shoulder to tip. It is the kind of edge detail that fossil hunters hunt for and rarely find in this condition on a tooth ready to wear.
The tooth itself carries earthy gray tones across both root and blade. The root is dark gray with a rough, heavily textured surface full of the natural pitting and porosity that comes from deep fossilization. The blade transitions to a slightly lighter gray, smooth and clean with sharp vertical enamel lines that run its full length. The build around it is equally distinctive. The bone beads on this necklace are light tan and cream with bold wavy black lines that wrap each bead in a flowing pattern, a completely different look from any other build in this collection. Stainless steel wire holds the root with clean secure tension and stainless steel clamps close out both ends of the Greek leather cord.
The serration on this tooth survived thousands of years underground. That is not an accident.
This is the actual tooth you will receive.
