Mammoth Ivory Carving of Octopus on Geode

$495.00

Product Description

A mammoth ivory octopus spread across an amethyst geode

This mammoth ivory octopus on amethyst geode shows an octopus draped over a split geode, its arms curling across the purple crystals. Each arm is carved with rows of tiny suckers, and the tips are touched with warm color.

The geode sits on a dark polished wood base, so the pale ivory, violet crystal, and rough gray stone play off one another. It is a dramatic, one-of-a-kind piece for a desk, shelf, or collection of sea life carvings.
