Description: | Necklace made of twenty-five dogs' incisor teeth tied into a piece of plaited cord. Eleven of the teeth face one way, and fourteen in the opposite direction. Discs made from sections of white shell are stitched to the outside of the cord so that they overlap one another. At each end there is a further length of cord for fastening: at one end a loop and at the other a longer length of thinner, twisted fibre which splits into two.
