It is an Amazonian indigenous tradition to once in a lifetime kill a jaguar or other predator as a sign of masculinity, and make from its canine tooth a piece of jewellery, which may be passed down through the family for generations.
Today, the animal is protected, but it is poached ruthlessly.
The man's power necklace is made of bronze and has a plastic replica of the jaguar's tooth attached to it to remind us of the tradition, but also to remind us of the disappearance of wild animals.
The jewellery is made from local bronze, which is not as pure as that produced in Europe. It is therefore not recommended for people allergic to metals, and especially not for those sensitive to copper.
