This incredible fossil mammoth tusk is in an impeccable condition - an unbelievable discovery from Yakutia Siberia (gorgeously preserved in the permafrost).
The tusk comes from a young mammoth that trekked through the frozen tundra more than 20,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene.
This gorgeous fossil is ready to be displayed in your home, office or museum. A custom-made stained solid oak stand showcases its beautiful curvature.
Overall, this a superb tusk because of its intact tip and gorgeous coloration.
The natural coloration is stunning with a mixture of cream and earthy brown.
Importantly, this Ice Age treasure has not been painted over or had large areas filled like many tusks on the market.
Stand: 20" x 3"1/2 x 8"
