Bone, Horn, and Antlers are gathered in such a way that no animals are hurt = all are either natural shed or died from natural causes - We also have a selection of Carved pendants out of bone, whose material is ancient and fossilized. The first evidence of culture and the earliest known beads are associated with Neanderthal man dating to approximately 38,000 BC, when Homo Sapiens were replacing them with more complex cultures. Working with stone tools and bone, horn, shell, seed and nut materials - the early peoples made ornaments and objects of spiritual importance. There was a close bond with the animal, plant and nut spirit and was always a sign of respect.
