Human Ivory

Human Ivory is bespoke jewellery made from your own teeth or your loved ones’. Send us your lost teeth and receive your personal pearl jewellery.

How personal can jewellery become? Human Ivory proposes an egalitarian jewellery collection, where the body is being adorned by it’s own gem, polished from recognizable teeth into an abstract but familiar pearl shape.
