Description from the seller
A fragment of open sea, sharp as the thought of someone who knows where to go.
This pendant houses an anterior tooth of the mako shark (Isurus oxyrinchus), one of the fastest and most relentless predators in the ocean. Its shape is pure simplicity: sleek, smooth, with a natural curve that expresses the full direct power of the attack. No serration, no hesitation: only precision, speed, and impact.
The mako shark, from the Lamnidae family, can exceed 70 km/h thanks to its hydrodynamic musculature and its tail, perfectly adapted for marine speed. It is a selective predator, capable of chasing tuna, swordfish, and mackerel across the open ocean, with quick movements and sharp strikes. Its front teeth are as sharp as surgical blades: they cut, they do not tear. It strikes only once, at the right moment.
The tooth has been mounted in a custom-made 925 silver structure that follows the natural base of the crown with a precise line and a mirror finish. Silver does not cover but accompanies: a metal that enhances without dominating, leaving the tooth with all its primitive language.
Wearing this pendant means invoking the essence of the mako: clarity, readiness, freedom. It is a talisman for those who refuse to be slowed down, for those who live time like a wave and know how to seize the moment with determination.
An authentic jewel, born from the ocean and forged for the spirit of those who move with cutting elegance.
