Ready to mount to your choice of plaque and displayed. I acquired this piece from a native Alaskan. He wanted me to use this for a set of knives. I saved it and Rather then cutting these beautiful tusks up, I traded him the knife set for the scull and tusks. Then we used some other already cut Ivory for his knives. :)

In case you were wondering, Its perfectly legal to own and buy or sell. I really hate to part with it. But want/NEED to add another tool to my shop and I hope this will help fund that.. Its ready to be mounted and displayed or could be used for some awesome knife handles or scrimshaws or jewelry etc. But I think whoever gets it will be like me and want to leave it as is and display it proudly in your man cave!

The info I received when got this, its approx 90 years old. The artwork is native Dineh. And dipicts a sea serpent, and a a bunch of other cool stuff, I would call it TRIBAL. its awesome. Its hard to see in the images, yet VERY impressive and cool in person. Also attached to the scull are walruses which are hand made Sterling Silver and turquoise. The mask is approx 21" overall height.

Message me or post here if you have any questions.
Asking $2000.00 + shipping and insurance.
I accept PayPal or most other forms of payment. I normally ship USPS priority mail, But will ship whatever method the buyer request.
Thanks
