In the palm of one’s hand lay Zebra’s Passage, a unique piece of mammoth ivory jewelry unlike any other. Its smooth surface revealed the natural ivory striations, which Jock Hildebrand had carved with careful precision into the graceful arcs of two zebras making their way through the tall, golden grasses of the African savanna.
The piece seemed alive—Hildebrand’s fine lines captured the zebras’ quiet elegance as they strode in single file. Their stripes, subtly raised and textured, reflected the wild spirit of the savanna, where they blended into the earthy tones of the ivory itself. It was as though these ancient creatures, etched into the surface, were reliving their timeless journey across the vast, open land.
