Fossil & Ethical Policy

Shark Heritage jewelry is made with genuine fossilized shark teeth — ancient, naturally mineralized fossils from sharks that lived millions of years ago.

Our mission is to create meaningful jewelry that celebrates sharks, ocean history, and prehistoric life through fossils, while respecting sharks living in our oceans today.

Genuine Fossilized Materials

The teeth used in Shark Heritage jewelry are ancient fossil specimens. Over millions of years, they became naturally preserved and mineralized in the earth, creating their unique colors, textures, shapes, and surface details.

Because every fossil is formed by nature, no two pieces are exactly alike. Small differences in color, size, shape, and texture are part of each fossil’s natural character.

Ancient Fossils, Not Modern Material

Shark Heritage uses fossilized shark teeth only.

These are ancient mineralized fossils, not teeth taken from sharks living today. We do not use material from living or recently killed sharks.

Our goal is to offer shark tooth jewelry through genuine fossils — with a connection to prehistoric oceans, not modern wildlife harm.

Certificate of Authenticity

Each Shark Heritage piece includes a Certificate of Authenticity with details about the fossil used in the jewelry.

Depending on the piece, this may include the shark species, scientific name, estimated age, fossil origin, tooth size, and natural fossil coloration.

This helps customers understand the history behind their jewelry and confirms that the tooth is a genuine fossil.

Handmade Fossil Jewelry

Each necklace and bracelet is handmade in our small workshop in the Czech Republic.

The fossil teeth are carefully selected, cleaned, drilled, and paired with durable materials such as stainless steel, natural gemstones, black cord, or gold-colored stainless steel details.

Shark Heritage jewelry is created for people who love sharks, fossils, the ocean, and meaningful natural pieces with a real prehistoric story.

In Summary

Shark Heritage jewelry is made with genuine fossilized shark teeth: ancient mineralized fossils, millions of years old, with Certificate of Authenticity included.

Our goal is to create fossil jewelry that honors ancient oceans while respecting sharks living today.
