What kind of bone is my bracelet made out of?
I bought a real bone bracelet at the Gem Fair, and I was wondering just what kind of bone it's made out of. It looks like white ivory kind of, solid bone-white, except the uncarved parts that have a shiny slightly yellow, "coating." It's light, but has a little weight to it, and when I look inside the carved out spaces, it's solid (not spongy bone, or even compact bone, since it's totally solid!). The pieces are in about 1 inch/2 cm squares. Thanks! If anyone needs more detail, comment, and I will update.
Most bone jewelry is made from deer bones.
I've got a traditional carved bone necklace from NZ (bought it while I was on vacation) and that is what it is made of.
Hope I helped
