Femur necklace | sterling silver
The longest and strongest bone in the human body — bearing the full load of the skeleton in every step, jump, and change of direction.
The Anatomy of the Femur
The femur spans from the hip to the knee, transmitting body weight from the pelvis to the tibia via a neck-shaft angle of approximately 126 degrees. The femoral head, covered in hyaline cartilage, articulates with the acetabulum of the pelvis. The greater and lesser trochanters serve as attachment points for the powerful muscles of the hip — gluteus medius, gluteus maximus, iliopsoas, and the short external rotators. The linea aspera on the posterior shaft anchors multiple muscle groups. The distal femur expands into medial and lateral condyles, which articulate with the tibia and patella. Hip fractures, typically at the femoral neck, are a major source of morbidity in older adults.
