The delicious-looking unicorn ring by Bibi Van Der Velden combines rare and ancient materials with historic techniques. Carved to perfection and inlaid with 18ct. gold, mammoth ivory and pink sapphires, the pieces is created out of the tusk of a 40,000 year-old Mammoth, which was discovered, because of global warming, under the permafrost in Siberia. Consequently, the pieces also contribute to preservation.
