Gorbushki in mammoth ivory — handmade, one of a kind, no. 264.
Colour ranges from warm cream to honey and tobacco, the shade set by the minerals of the ground the tusk rested in for millennia. More on the material’s properties in the “mammoth ivory” section.
The form shows best on warm, dense materials that polish well and gain depth on the swells — mammoth ivory, aged wood, horn and amber — where the rounded hump catches a soft highlight and, over time, takes a finger-loved patina.
Handmade by Zhenya Kartavyh. One of a kind. Overall length 22 cm, weight 48 g. This piece is sold; we can craft a similar one to order.
