Default Wedding presents

Wedding presents for a pair of friends.

Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures!

They're made from tagua nuts and birch root (or birch burl depending on where you live).

It's supposed to be a pair of northern gannets and a wolf (not a husky like someone said)

Hoping someone dares to comment

Didn't take pictures of the actual leather necklace I made for them, nothing complicated, just a noose knot to hold the piece and a pair of sliding knots so the users can set the length.

Hahah, you're a brave man Daniel..

Thanks SEngraver, took some time to make! But they were happy with it and that is what matters.

Glad to hear that the knife was memorable , I really enjoyed making it. Plan to make a similar one next year also, same type of wood but in a strong blue colour instead!
