AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mako shark front tooth, Isurus oxyrinchus, mounted in a custom-molded 925 silver framework that follows its shape with fluid precision. The mirror-polished finish creates a sharp contrast between the metal and the bone color of the tooth, preserving all its natural elegance.
The shortfin mako shark is the fastest of all sharks, capable of reaching speeds of 70 km/h in attack. An agile and relentless predator, it lives in the open sea and feeds on fast-moving fish such as tuna and swordfish. Its smooth, sharp front teeth are designed by nature to stab without hesitation. Each tooth is a living blade, a symbol of instinct and determination.
Wearing this pendant means carrying the essence of movement and precision with you. A piece of jewelry that is not only beautiful but powerful: for those who feel the need to go straight ahead, without fear and without noise.
An authentic oceanic fragment. A talisman for swift spirits.
