I also agree and add that in the presence of sulfur or sulfer oxides, the ivory will darken quicker and in an orange to brown hue. Although it takes time for this to occur, it tricks the timeline for age, making some ivories appear older than they are. The other factors already mentioned must be added into the formula.
