5.1 cm light-coloured Mako shark tooth pendant

The 5.1 cm large tooth of the Mako shark has a light brown-grey enamel with reddish elements. The dark brown root provides a nice contrast. The root and parts of the enamel are polished and give the tooth a beautiful lustre. The eyelet is made of 10 carat gold wire. The Cosmopolitosus hastalis is a direct ancestor of today's Mako sharks and the Great White shark.
