Product Description
A hand-carved mammoth ivory sea turtle in dark or light tones
This mammoth ivory turtle carving shows a sea turtle with carefully cut shell plates and spread flippers. Choose a dark or light carving, reflecting the natural range of color in mammoth ivory.
The darker pieces come from the outer tusk, where minerals stained the ivory over thousands of years in the earth. Each turtle is carved by hand, so color and detail vary, and every piece is one-of-a-kind.
