Arrowhead necklace

[coosakid]

Anybody ever made any kind of jewelry from there finds. I've got all my good points in a frame and didn't just want this point sitting in a box. Done found out its a good conversation starter and got a new place to hunt from it.. Just simple nothing fancy

I haven't but I am sure it's a great ice breaker. Something good to wear at local farm markets.

While I don't wear jewelry, I think that is really cool!

That looks pretty neat. Have thought about doing the same thing although I've never liked wearing jewelry/accessories. I would fear carelessly losing it as I'd most likely lose my head if it wasn't attached.

 

[coosakid]

Ive never wore any jewelry either. That's why I made it kinda plain Jane (simple) where i would wear it. I kinda worry about losing it but Im pretty confident on how I got it tied... Anyways I appreciate y'all looking

I have worn an Arrowhead Necklace since I was around 18 so roughly 40 years. I have went through quite a few different Points, some I just changed out and some unfortunately fell off and broke. I don't wear good ones anymore. I now just but colorful repros and wear them. I also had one stolen right off my neck on the beach in the Dominican Republic.

This is the only pics I have of my Points for a Necklace. I bought these online for around $20 shipping and all. I wore the second one until it fell off and broke and the first one I gave to a good friend.

I make all kinds of them and mostly give them away. Not much for wearing jewelry either. I donate to archery shoots for the drawing table and they seem to be well received.

Knapped this one out of mookiate fro Australia for my wife.

I have seen them made by people who make their own arrowheads. I, too, would hate to loose one of my old points........ Incentive to flake your own I sure need to do that!!!!

I wore one around my neck for years..The oils from your skin bring out the color of the stone...mjm

Here are a couple of necklaces that I made in the late 1980s. Both points were found in Louisiana while tree planting in 1985/86. The dovetail necklace is repro beads. The other is older trade beads.Sorry for the oder of the pics.

 

[crj1968]

Very cool Steve. Nice points and I like the way you secured them. Cool to have something like that you made yourself for so long

Cool necklance! I'm currently working on incorporating some pottery shards I to a wristband that I'm making. I plan on posting a pic when I finish it.
