 Sterling Silver $105.00
"You have to leave room in life for dreams." Buffy Saint-Marie
Recognizing our hopes and dreams, and locking on to their messages whatever our circumstances, is what allows us to fix our minds on special goals and work towards them. Such goals can and have changed many lives.We designed our Dream Lock Amulet VII from a very special piece of 4500 year old beautiful mocha colored Fossil Walrus Ivory with a bark side we found on Nunivak Island in the Bering Sea. Time and the elements had worn an almost perfectly circular hole completely through this piece of aged Ivory! Such pieces have been unearthed many times in the burial places of Shamans - They could only have been used to look through the hole towards the things that Shamans alone can see. We designed our Dream Lock Amulet VII so that you could look through it again-and-again to find and remind yourself of your dreams and goals. We made it look like a contemporary lock to lock them in your heart. Reversible, it can be worn with the bark side out, so you can wear the side that fits your mood! (See inset) In Sterling Silver, with a deep blue opal on the lighter side. 1 1/2 inches high, 1 inch wide. Please scroll down below to see Dreamlock Amulet VIII
This is a one-of-a-kind piece.Complete with Sterling Silver chain.

The available colors of our high quality Fossilized Ivories are shown below. (Please allow for some color variation in these natural materials.) Our wonderful Ivories have been reclaimed from the ground after sharing the earth for up to 30 millennia! Even after all this time, Fossil Ivory remains warm and sensuous organic ivory; it is not petrified. It has developed its beautiful colors by taking up minerals from the earth and these colors are impossible to match in any contemporary ivories by modern processes. In time, the Fossil Ivories you wear or use will take on very personal hues from your contact. They will become a part of you.
These are our
