ALL LARGE TUSKS ARE FROM VERY OLD ANIMALS AND HAVE ALL THE SCARS, CHIPS AND CRACKS THAT COME WITH AGE. REMEMBER THAT THEY USED THESE TUSKS TO DIG FOR FOOD ON THE OCEAN FLOOR IN ADDITION TO YEARS OF FIGHTING. THIS LEFT MANY IMPERFECTIONS. THIS IS NATURAL. WHEN MAKING A REPLICA, ALL OF THESE THINGS SHOW UP AS IN THE ORIGINAL TUSKS. STANDARD MEASUREMENTS ARE ARROUND THE CURVE OF TUSKS, TEETH AND CLAWS.
THIS IS A RESIN REPRODUCTION PIECE AND DOES NOT VIOLATE ANY U.S.LAWS OR EBAY RULES CONCERNING ENDANGERED SPECIES.IT BEARS ALL THE NICKS AND SCRATCHES OF THE ORIGINAL TOOTH.
YOU ARE BIDDING ON A GREAT OLD REPRODUCTION SCRIMSHAW PIECE. IT IS A REPRODUCTION OF A WALRUS TUSK DEPICTING CAPTAIN JOHN PAUL JONES AND HIS ADVERSARY CAPTAIN RICHARD PEARSON ON SEPTEMBER 23RD, 1779.
I personally hand make all my reproductions. Each one is carefully crafted from the finest materials. The Scrimshaw teeth and tusks will "age" over time when exposed to any light. So, after time, they look more and more "old".
They all have the nicks and scratches associated with the original teeth, some more than others. All have a money back guarantee.
