Jet Black Hand Carved Skull

Chiseled from a solid piece of Siberian Jet, this hand-carved Skull features an incredible level of detail, virtually anatomically correct. Highly detailed, it includes intricately-fine bone lines that mimic the components of the cranium.

A gemstone, Jet has an organic origin, being derived from decaying wood carbonized under extreme pressure millions of years ago. The phrase “jet-black,” meaning the darkest black possible, derives from the name. A surprisingly light substance, Jet has been used in art since at least 10,000 B.C.
