Mammoth Tusk

Mammoth Tusk was used by ancient civilizations, such as the Vikings and Inuit, to craft intricate carvings. It is fossilized ivory from the tusks of ancient woolly mammoths, and currently sought after by jewelry designers and collectors for its unique texture and durability. While the use of ivory from living elephants is now illegal due to concerns about animal welfare and conservation, mammoth tusk provides an ethical and sustainable alternative to ivory.
