015 Tight Embrace. Fine jewelry made from ancient mammoth ivory. Pendent by Jock Hildebrand.

Tight Embrace” is a striking piece from the Elegant Mammoth collection, its polished ivory surface echoing the warmth of a close embrace. Sculptor Jock Hildebrand imagined two ancient beings, side by side, forever bound in the bonds of friendship and love, their forms polished by the elements and preserved over millennia.

This piece celebrates the beauty of relationships that withstand the tests of time and nature. Just as mammoth ivory has survived ice ages and epochs, the ties between lovers or cherished friends endure, weathering life’s hardships and transformations. The two intertwined shapes within Tight Embrace symbolize unity and strength, their natural curves representing two spirits leaning on each other.

Every time someone wears Tight Embrace, it’s a reminder of the importance of connection and loyalty. It’s not only a beautiful piece of jewelry but a tribute to the friendships and loves that stay with us, unbroken and unyielding.
