Another nice one…i'm not so sure that these long incisors actually qualify as ivory per se, but they are cool. Probably too small for the kind of usage we generally see on old weapons (whole hilts or hilt scales for instance), but still very interesting.

For sure! It would have to be a tiny shamshir!
 Just the nearest thing to deer ivory there is... they are sold as tusks not teeth & used for some tribal jewellery I think, in far east.  spiral |

These might be large enough for a small knife hilt.

Not New Jersey , But relevant to those in the Uk... & probably all other so called "civilised" countries given time..
Perhaps The beginning of the end for miss labelling Ivory dealers & auction houses in the UK.. Seems like the police are doing the radioactive isotope check. spiral link |
