Wow,---- I can't recommend anyone right now. I had a friend in Ft Washakie that did it, but they moved to Alaska. he's out of the business now.
So...How about you Kraigwy? |

I don't know anyone to makes jewelry, but I do know elk teeth make beautiful ear rings. My wife sure loves here.
I spent good deal of time living with the AK Natives on the Bering Sea. They do some magnificent carvings using the ivory from Walrus tusk, I think if I was going to have something made I would try to find one of my contacts on St. Lawrence Island.
