Woolly Mammoth Tusk Bark Offcuts – Mixed Craft Lot
A unique assortment of genuine woolly mammoth tusk bark offcuts, selected and packed as one individual lot. These pieces are natural fossil mammoth ivory and are suitable for knife making, scrimshaw, inlays, jewelry, carving, and a wide variety of handmade projects.
You will receive the exact box and all of the mammoth tusk pieces shown in the photos. This is not a sample or representative image. Each box is photographed individually, so you can examine the actual assortment before purchasing.
Each box contains a varied assortment of mammoth tusk bark offcuts left from processing larger pieces of tusk. The lot includes pieces of different lengths, widths, thicknesses, shapes, curvature, surface textures, and natural colors.
Some pieces are larger and thicker and may be suitable for knife handle accents, spacers, bolsters, or other custom projects. Other pieces are thinner or smaller and are ideal for inlays, jewelry, decorative elements, small carvings, and detailed handmade work.
The assortment may also contain small pieces of high-grade / first-grade mammoth ivory with clean light-colored material. These pieces can be especially useful for scrimshaw, fine inlays, small inserts, jewelry, and other detailed work.
The outer bark layer of ancient mammoth tusk develops its distinctive appearance during thousands of years in the ground and permafrost. Individual pieces can display natural shades of brown, tan, gray, cream, blue-gray, and darker mineral coloration.
Because this is genuine fossil material, variations are expected. Pieces may have natural cracks, weathered surfaces, irregular edges, curvature, bark texture, color variations, and other characteristics associated with fossil mammoth tusk.
This is intentionally a mixed lot and the pieces are not sorted or matched for uniform dimensions or quality. Please examine all product photos carefully.
All material in this lot has been well seasoned and thoroughly dried before sale. It is not freshly recovered or wet material.
The mammoth tusk offcuts are dry and ready for use in your workshop. As with any natural fossil ivory, individual pieces should still be evaluated by the maker before cutting, sanding, engraving, or incorporating them into a finished project.
