Vintage whale tooth replica 1950-1960's looks feels real

Description

This whale tooth reporduction is as close to real as real. I can only atest to the owner and source. The owner was my dad who was a fats and oils chemist / surveyor until his retirement in 1980. His company validated all sorts of fats and oils, including ballen and sperm whale until the 1972 embargo. Ships captains gave them to him as gifts. Plus we got other cool stuff as well.
This one weighs 13.8 ounces and measures 6.75 inches long and circumference of 6.5 inches at its widest.
I try to be fully accurate with description and details which may affect your bidding, but all sales are final. All items being sold belong to my family (primarily myself and my dad). I was a highly active seller up to 10 years ago, spending 11+ years clearing the 120 old family home of all its items. We are selling our house now, so it is time to clear the rest.
Please check pictures and ask questions. The pictures are an important part of the item description.
