This piece has been sold, but we may have a similar item available. Contact us online to make an inquiry.
In pristine condition, this gorgeous 69-inch fossil mammoth tusk was found preserved in the permafrost in Yakutia, Siberia.
Ready to be displayed in your home, office or museum, this tusk comes from a mammoth that trekked through the frozen tundra more than 20,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene. A custom-made stained solid oak stand showcases its beautiful curvature.
Overall, this is a superb tusk because of its intact tip, stunning coloration, with a mixture of creamy white colours, as well as its especially curvy shape. Importantly, it has not been painted over or had large areas filled, like many tusks on the market.
