About

Shark Island Jewelers, Gastonia, NC

Have been diving for fossils for 35 years and began making jewelry with the fossilized shark teeth that I would find.  I started making a pendant or two for myself and a dive partner and from there my business grew to making and supplying large wholesale gift shop suppliers with shark tooth pendants and necklaces.  Over the last 6 years I have expanded my jewelry line to include Turquoise, Jasper and Labradorite  pendants.
I have been selling & trading fossils , shark jaws and modern Great White shark teeth (legally) since the beginning.
My passion for diving and collecting fossils  still continues as my jewelry business expands into new areas of design.
All my handmade items are made by myself.
