Beautifully carved swordfish bill with a parade of savannah elephants setting. A very impressive eye-catcher.

A master craftsman has intricately carved a parade of Elephants in an African Savannah setting, into this large Swordfish Tusk. The carving is of very high quality and has a lot of detail. Could be seen as a type of scrimshaw. Scrimshaw is the name given to engravings and carvings done in bone or ivory.

APPROXIMATE DIMENSION
The tusk is 88 cm long

NOTE:
- THE WEIGHT MENTIONED IS INCLUDING PACKING MATERIAL.
- Resin has been used to fill the swordfish.

DISCLAIMERS
- Since it is a natural tusk, it might have some natural minimal cracks and crevices in the tusk. This is normal. Please refer to pictures.
- Our tusks are cleaned professionally, but sometimes minor discolouration still occurs. This is natural and normal, and not something we can do a lot about. Please refer to the pictures.

Malgré un bon emballage pour la deuxième fois le crane du tigre au dents de sabre arrive cassé. Cordialement Éric

The quality of the piece is poor. It is seems like a plastic piece and not a bronze piece. I am very disappointed with this order to be honest. To expensive for such poor quality

The piece arrived a bit damaged and with some dead bugs inside the carvings, but was easy to repair. Still happy with it. It's beautiful.
