“Woman with Parasol Antique” black and white scrimshaw on antique walrus tusk ivory by unknown scrimshander. Done in the pin prick style by unknown artist, probably between 1860s to 1880s. Common method to transfer subject to ivory. Interesting addition at the base of a handshake between male and female hands. Great patina. This is from the collection of one of our long time clients who is no longer with us. He had several antique pieces, most of which we have already sold.
Notice:
This scrimshaw is done on a sperm whale’s tooth. Federal legislation bans the interstate shipment of whale ivory. It can only be shipped intrastate (within the state). All of our whale ivory is located with our associate in the state of Florida. It can be purchased directly from our website and shipped only to an address within the state of Florida. If one has a relative, trusted friend or business associate within the state of Florida, we can ship to that specified address in order to comply with Federal legislation. The scrimshaw can then be forwarded to you and everyone complies with the law. Any questions, email or call us.
