Faun/Elf Pendant

This is one piece of carving -
the one side is shown an elf face
and on the other side is a faun face

This is a hand made carving
out of ten thousand years old piece of Mammoth.

Mammoth is found in Siberia And Alaska in permafrost,
It is evaluated scientifically and then brought into the free trade.

It's amazing! What's an ART! Perfect!

Thanks a lot :-)

i didn't even know if this was legal , wow

this is legal - my friend :-)
you can buy mammoth here in Germany legal ... no problem
... and its better to carve in mammoth
than in elephant-ivory where is blood on...
Thanks anyway :-)

I imagine it is quite expensive though? I know about mammoth ivory but havent gotten around to ordering any. I have used tagua nuts instead, it is quite cheap and really nice to work with. Its also known as vegetable ivory. Have you tried that?

yes - mammoth isnt cheap , but i like the colors in the surface - it comes really antique.

Taguanut i have carved - its a good alternative stoff - thats right
i will show you my miniature carving in Tagua , if i find the Photos :-)
Thank you :-)

Thank you :-)

Again, very beautiful work! Are the blue-green-ish tones natural, or did you add some color?
