A beautiful large carved Swordfish bill with elephant carving, a very impressive eye-catcher.

The base and cracks in the swordfish bill filled with off white epoxy.

A master craftsman has intricately carved a family 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 DIMENSIONS
The tusk is: 83 cm long

DISCLAIMERS
- Resin has been used to fill the swordfish.
- 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.
- The height mentioned is including stand
- THE WEIGHT MENTIONED IS INCLUDING STAND AND PACKING MATERIAL

The item is nice. The seller is real professional (only DHL in Greece seems to have problems.The tracking system stops updating just after departing the origin country and for 6-7 days gets "freezed")

Kaunis koroste-esine. Luinnonmateriaali tekee siitä huippuhienon. Juuri minun makuuni. Tuo mielenrauhaa ja harmoniaa huoneeseen. Onnistunut ostos. Kiitos! Airi Järvinen

After not receiving my stone, I contacted them and got the response that they could not find the stone (the stone went up in smoke). Probably not satisfied with the agreed price agreement...

Na annulering van de verkoop, werd de belofte gedaan van terug betaling van het betaalde bedrag. Echter na een week nog niets daarvan gezien.
