Ingleside Icelandics

Purebred Icelandic sheep in Virginia’s heartland   

Hand Carved

Sheep Bone Jewelry

 

Each piece of jewelry I make is individually hand-carved and polished from natural Icelandic sheep bone, so no two are exactly alike. 

 

I like to use simple, flowing designs to show off the innate beauty of the material.  Shapes from nature, as well as Celtic, Pictish, Viking, and other ancient cultures, inspire many of the motifs in my work.

 

Bone jewelry is light and luxurious, with a smooth, organic feel that is more comfortable against the skin than either metal or stone.

 

My materials come from my own lovingly raised flock of sheep, and each bone is cleaned naturally by exposure to wind and weather, then briefly sanitized with hydrogen peroxide.  No harsh chemicals are used!

 

All the bones are cruelty-free, respectfully harvested from sheep that died of natural causes, NOT sheep that were sent to slaughter.

 

These photos show just a few examples of my work.  To see what items are currently available, please visit my Etsy shop.

 

I also do custom orders.  Please inquire!
