As I was doing research on narwhals, I came across what may be one of the most interesting bits of history I've ever found: Vikings used to trade their tusks as unicorn horns, convinced they held magical powers.
Today, we know that horn is actually just a really unique, elongated tooth. And while it may not have fairytale capabilities, it does a tremendous job at helping the narwhal navigate, something my teeth have never done for me.
I think that's really the magic of this beautiful creature in the first place - its uniqueness is what makes it so loved. Think about how differently we look at this in our own lives: we're constantly doing whatever we can to blend in - to hide what makes us different in hopes of never making a commotion.
But narwhals - they just don't care. And the truth is you shouldn't either. That's exactly why this very limited edition set exists - we wanted to make something fun that celebrated appreciation of the different, the unique and the magical.
