Copper Shark Jaw – Beautifully Prepared Specimen from Southern Madagascar

This impressive copper shark jaw has been expertly cleaned and prepared by skilled artisans in the coastal villages of southern Madagascar. Sourced from a small, traditional fishery that provides essential support to local families, the piece carries both scientific interest and cultural value.

The jaw features beautifully preserved, sharply defined teeth, arranged in multiple rows typical of requiem sharks. Their pristine condition and natural ivory coloration make this specimen particularly attractive for collectors, educators, or enthusiasts of marine fauna.

Lightweight yet visually striking, it is an elegant and authentic addition to any natural history collection or display.
