![]() Beautiful One-of-a-Kind Handmade Caribou & Moose Antler Seam Rippers |
About the Artist ![]() |
How it all got started… “Through the years as I explored Alaska I would always come home with caribou and moose sheds. As time went on I had quite a collection and had no idea what to do with them. One day I noticed that my wife was frustrated and I asked her what I could do to help. She said nothing unless you can figure out how to make this seem ripper handle fit better in my hand, and that’s how it all started.” |
The Process of Turning Antlers into Art ![]() |
The Uniqueness of Each Seam Ripper
Different colors intertwined throughout each seam ripper tells a story of that animal. Colors in antlers vary from the species of the animal to what vegetation was in their environment when they shed their antlers. Shedding is the natural, annual process of antlers falling off. The shedding or “dropping”, of the antlers happens in the winter months once the antlers have reached their full growth for the season. Once the growing has stopped the velvet that covers the antlers dies. Once all the dead velvet has fallen off, the beautiful white-toned antlers will be visible. The antlers will then change color as the moose or caribou mark their territory for the upcoming mating season by rubbing their antlers on trees and brush. |
