A winged dragon-wolf snarls above a polished black onyx fang on this dragon wolf tusk pendant in .925 sterling silver. Its jaw hangs open with the fangs bared, while a scrolled silver cap below it closes small claw prongs over the top of the stone. The tusk carries the pendant to its full 65mm length, a long, talon-like drop that hangs straight down. The whole piece weighs 27 grams: oxidized silver set against glossy black stone.
Who Wears This
If you like hybrid creature designs — the head pairs a wolf’s pointed ears and furred brow with a long dragon snout full of fangs. A scaled neck curls down in a C-shape, and two wings fold behind it: one deeply feathered, one smooth and polished. Neither animal takes over.
If you want a tusk or fang pendant with meaning — people were already wearing pierced animal teeth as pendants 43,000–45,000 years ago, at Bacho Kiro Cave in Bulgaria. Here the fang is black onyx, held in silver claws under a creature that still has all of its own teeth bared.
If you want a long, narrow pendant — at 25×65mm, it hangs long and narrow, and the tapering tusk draws the eye down the chest. It’s sold as the pendant only, with no chain or cord, and works best as a standalone piece on a 22–24 inch chain.
An Honest Look
The onyx tusk is the most exposed part of this pendant. It extends below the silver frame and is the first thing that will contact surfaces if the pendant swings. Black onyx is reasonably hard (Mohs 6.5–7), but a direct drop onto tile or concrete could chip the tip. Normal daily wear is fine — just be aware of the tusk’s position when leaning over hard surfaces.
The Build
Common Questions
Q: Is the onyx tusk a separate piece or built into the silver?
It's a separate stone. The black onyx tusk is shaped and polished on its own, then set into a scrolled sterling silver cap below the dragon-wolf, where small claw-shaped prongs close over its top edge. Below those prongs, the fang is bare, glossy onyx all the way to its sharp tip.
Q: Is this a dragon or a wolf?
Both. A wolf's pointed ears and furred brow sit on a long dragon snout full of fangs, and the scaled neck and folded wings are pure dragon. The closest real-world parallel is the Dacian draco, a battle standard with a wolf's head on a serpent's body; 21 of them appear on Trajan's Column in Rome, inaugurated in AD 113.
Q: Does the pendant come with a chain?
No. It's sold as the pendant only, with no chain or cord included; the ball chain and braided cord in the photos are there for display only. The bail is a tall oval tube, so check that your own chain's clasp fits through it before you thread the pendant on.
