Mezcal Bean + Bone Tooth Necklace
Stacked necklace made of wild harvested Texas Mountain Laurel and animal teeth. Texas Mountain Laurel is also known as mezcal bean or frijolillo. These beans are poisonous to both animals and humans but have been used ancestrally for ceremony and body decoration by many indigenous peoples. We wear these beans as protection. Bones from our animal relatives are worn as a way of honoring their life and death - a way of connecting to their spirit.
