Not every fossil tooth needs sharp serration to command attention. This 2 3/16 inch fossilized Megalodon shark tooth earns its place on the cord through sheer size, coloration, and the kind of raw natural character that only comes from thousands of years underground. The tooth is deep gray and charcoal from root to tip, a heavy, matte darkness that reads bold and confident in any light. The root is wide and aggressively textured, porous and irregular with the kind of surface detail that makes it clear this is the real thing.
The serration on this tooth has worn naturally over thousands of years, which is entirely expected and common in a fossil of this age. What remains is a clean, solid blade with vertical enamel lines running its full length and a profile that fills the cord with presence. The spotted bone beads flanking the tooth are warm brown with natural black and white markings, a combination that pairs well with the dark fossil and gives this build a character of its own. Stainless steel wire secures the root with clean tension and stainless steel clamps finish both ends of the Greek leather cord.
Every texture and tone on this tooth is a record of deep time. No two are alike.
This is the actual tooth you will receive.
