This is a one-of-a-kine fossil mammoth ivory with a beautiful latte/mocha patina with some unique mottle patterns. This is my new direction material as I see this is in keeping with sustainable art and conservation art. When my Pre-ban Elephant Ivory supplies expires, I will switch entirely to this beautiful extinct cousin of the modern Elephant. Just makes sense yeah? The ivory looks better on the Elepani! At least he must think so, and it doesn't support the illegal trade and slaughter.
