These earrings are hand carved, polished and batiked with a tribal mask design. Its a tidious process to make these batik print earrings. First the dangle is handcarved from cow bone to the desired shape and size. Then the print is drawn, wax is applied to the parts that are not to get the dye. Its is then dipped in the dye and after its dried the wax is removed to result in a batik print like the one on this earrings. We have a few of them so the one you will get might look slightly different since they are handmade.
Material: Cow bone, wire, Maasai bead
Size: Bone part is approximately 1" whole earring 2" (we have the same earring that is smaller)
