    • A rare complete parure of vintage shark tooth jewels, circa 1960s/70s, comprising six matching pieces: a ring, necklace, bracelet, earrings, and two pendants.

      Each jewel is crafted in 18K yellow gold and mounted with natural shark teeth, the bright white enamel-like texture contrasting beautifully with the warm gold. The set has a combined weight of 11.66 grams and carries French control marks for 18K gold alongside makers’ lozenge marks.

      The set consists of:

      • A ring (size K½ / US 5.5, easily resizable)
      • Necklace (16 in / 40.5 cm)
      • Bracelet (18.5 cm)
      • Pair of butterfly back earrings (1.5 × 1 cm)
      • Large pendant (3 cm diameter, with a freely rotating tooth)
      • Small pendant (1.5 × 1 cm)

      The shark tooth has long been regarded as a talisman of strength and protection. In antiquity, animal teeth were worn as pendants to invoke the qualities of the animal itself; here, resilience, courage, and power.

      This is a striking and unusual 1960s/70s set of French jewels, rare to find as a complete matching parure.
