LeopardtrackWhat to do with floating bones??
Looking for suggestions on what to do with the floating bones of my leopard.
I made a necklace from one of the dew claws which came out really nice.

Die Ou JagterI had mine made into a neckless for my Granddaughter. It is too large now but she will grow into it. She is only 6. I like to give these type of gifts as they are really something unique. I treasure them (bones) and I hope she will also some day.

D. NelsonHere are my lion and leopard floating bones. I had Madelyn Kay (she exhibits at the SCI convention and is located in California) do them. I got the Tanzanite in Tanzania and incorporated that into my leopard.
Regards, D. Nelson

Greg Appleby with Appleby's Animals out of Hawaii did the work.

Use Enough GunI had casts made of my lion's floating bones and then had them cast in pure silver. I have yet to do anything with the leopard's floating bones, although I now have some great ideas from the pics posted!
Cambanos & Son in Johannesburg also designs and produces floating bone jewlery. Contact Vincent or Amanda and they can email pictures of some designs.

OldHandgunHunterI have a necklace made for some one of the women in my life every time I harvest a cat.
I like dew claw pendants for myself, but I find that women really appreciate the floating bones once they're backed with gold.
