Grizzly, Moose and Caribou Scrimshaw by George Vukson

A beautiful very large piece of woolly mammoth ivory with grizzly bear, moose and caribou scrimshaw. Brilliant composition and work by Vukson on this scrimshaw. Nice color in the ancient mammoth tusk, the result of minerals that were absorbed into the ivory when it was buried in the ground.

The ivory is mounted to a nice fossilized walrus jawbone and wood bases. The ivory piece is approx. 26" long. The bases is 21" long. Signed by artist.
 This is an incredible one of a kind piece and nice addition to any scrimshaw collection.
