Hunting Snow Leopard

David Adams Scrimshaw - Hunting Snow Leopard

“Hunting Snow Leopard” color scrimshaw on sperm whale’s tooth by David Adams. Excellent composition by talented scrimshander, Adams. Great amount of specific detail in this one from the forested mountain slope on the left side to the snow draped boulders and underbrush on the right. Not to mention the regal snow leopeard, perfectly rendered by the scrimshander.  Quite a bit of fine work at a rock bottom price.

Bald Eagle’s Prey in Sight

D. Adams Scrimshaw - Bald Eagle's Prey in Sight

“Bald Eagle’s Prey in Sight” color scrimshaw on large piece of ancient mammoth tusk ivory bark by David Adams. Plunging bald eagle, talons at the ready, has his prey in sight. Chances are he will be successful, judging from the look in his eye as well as the angle of descent. Adams has really worked the eagle’s wings right into the colors of the outer bark. Not many would have the creative capability to recognize this, let alone pull if off successfully. For eagle collectors and wildlife collectors as well, this would occupy a centerpiece in their prized collections. A keeper!

Ruler of the Skies

Thick piece of mammoth ivory perfect for this outstanding work.
