Here we offer necklaces that were hand crafted by Michael McGrath and Jessica McGrath. We call them warrior necklaces because they just plain look like something a courageous Indian warrior would wear into battle. Our necklaces are all hand made starting from the point knapped by Mike right down to the hemp cordage braided by Jessica. The teeth are genuine coyote and the beads are individually hand made by Mike our of Red Dogwood. The hand made beads that are not colored or stained are left natural so that your own use and wear can personally color them. You will actually make your necklace unique to you this way and that is why we left them unfinished! The only thing on these necklaces that is not handmade are the screw-in barrel clasps that hold the necklace on you. You'll also be the envy of everyone at the Oooga Booga ceremonies at every knap-in you attend. An absurd amount of work goes into putting a single necklace together, but we've kept our prices fair so that you can own one without taking out a personal loan. The prices are adjusted correspondingly to the length of the necklace. Each point is hafted onto a wooden holder with real deer sinew and my own special pine pitch glue. You will not find any necklaces like the ones below for the price we offer ours at. Mike and Jessica wear theirs all the time (Mike wears his every day!!!)
If you desire a necklace that you do not see here, please contact Mike and Jessica for a special order at mike@susquehanna-wd.com. |
