Scrimshaw is the art of etching whale bones, teeth and/or  ivory from the tusks of walrus and mammoths. It is an ancient art form that dates back to the hay day of the whaling industry. This particular piece I believe to be authentic antique ivory. The scrimshaw depicts the flight of Canadian geese and is inscribed on the back by the artist an Inuit Indian named Komonaseak and the location where it was carved in Wales, Alaska along with the zip code there 99783.  It came into my possession nearly 30 years ago and now it is a very rare and unique piece of wearable art. $350
