Reliquaries, historically ornate containers for sacred relics, have been used for centuries to house the bones, clothing, or personal effects of saints and spiritual figures, serving as tangible connections to the divine. When worn as jewelry, a reliquary holding a tooth or bone from an animal becomes a tribute to the natural world, honoring the spirit of the creature and the cycle of life and death—reminding us of our deep, ancient connection to the wild.
 
This arch-shaped reliquary holds one coyote tooth, surrounded by dried flowers, leaves and moss.
This piece measures about 2 inches in height and comes on a 24-inch stainless steel chain.
