Description from Karokat: This pick is a representation of ancient cave paintings and rock art in beads. The colors of the stone and glass beads remind me of the famous French cave paintings (which include horses). The Lipstick Ranch Deer and Elk pendants look like they were taken right from ancient Swedish rock art. If you want to read more about cave paintings and rock art, check out the Bradshaw Foundation site, which explores ancient rock art all over the world: http://www.bradshawfoundation.com

Karokat says:Thank you all for your very kind comments! I’m not sure I’d use both the elk and the deer pendants in one necklace, but they both worked so well for the pick that I had to include both of them.
