We didn't want to make just any 'ol Dinosaur fossil necklace. We want our jewelry to be a work of art --- a beautiful gift for a loved one who loves all things ancient, or for yourself. To remind you of how much you'd like to go back in time. ; )

This version of our stainless steel time capsule contains a bit of the far past. I think May Kendall, poet and satirist, puts the air of this time wonderfully:
“I abide in a goodly Museum,
Frequented by sages profound:
'Tis a kind of strange mausoleum,
Where the beasts that have vanished abound.
There's a bird of the ages Triassic,
With his antediluvian beak,
And many a reptile Jurassic,
And many a monster antique. “
This capsule is meant to be a reminder of adventure. So purchase at your own risk! And prepare for all the brilliant and courageous adventures ahead!
