Handmade Bactrian Camel Totem Round Porcelain Pendant
The 2-humped Bactrian camel lives in Central Asia, with critically endangered wild populations in China and Mongolia. A camel humps store fat that produces energy and water the camel needs as it travels vast distances of desert. Double-thick eyelashes, small hairy ears, and nostrils that can close protect camels from the blowing desert sand. After weeks without water, a dehydrated and very thirsty camel can drink 30 gallons of water in just 13 minutes.
Did you know?
The bactrian camel is better known as being the type of camel with two humps. There are only two surviving species of camel remaining, the single humped camels from the Middle East and the bactrian (double humped) camel from Northern Asia. The bactrian camels humps work in the same way to the single humps camels, with the bactrian camels humps used for storing fat which can be converted to water and energy when the bactrian camel is unable to find food and water. The bactrian camels humps give the bactrian camels their legendary ability to endure long periods of travel without water, even in harsh desert conditions. As the fat in the bactrian camels humps gets used up, the bactrian camels humps become floppy and flabby. Bactrian camels have developed special adaptations to allow the bactrian camel to survive in such a brutal environment.
The unique making process of these porcelain pendants allows for more detail in designs than other mediums. These designs are fired into the clay at 2200 degrees, so they will not peel or wear off. Each piece is surprisingly lightweight and finished to a beautiful satin touch, and individually packaged in a box.
Approx. Pendant size : 3.1 centimetre in diameter. Weight of the pendant : 6 grams.
Comes with a 2 mm flat link stainless steel chain of 22 inch length(18+4 Inch Extender) and a lead free pewter accent bead. Wear it with bead!
