Fossil mammoth ivory tusk section 1lb 9 oz natural
Fossil mammoth ivory section 1 pound and 9 ounces. 5 x 4 x 2 inches. Fairly uniform dimensions. Center somewhat solid. #1 grade but not gem perfect. All natural no stabilize or filler. If it were me I’d at least stabilize this it’s 10,000 years old. But offered so you can decide what to do with it and how. Offered for larger projects specifically the pistol grip market but could be a display, carved, sanded down for scrimshaw. Some areas solid no cracks but as pictures show some delamination which is more normal then not. Keep in mind ‘raw’ is quite a bit less $ then matched uniform sets created. Expect some waste on most projects. I’d make it work for pistol grips (in that quality) with some work. Nice soft tan Solid bark about ½ inch. Here is one of my you tube if you want information on how to stabilize Or you may have your own methods or person you send it off to. There is controversy on what is best! It’s in your hands to decide! how to fix mam fossils
