86 Inch Narwhal Tusk
InformationOutstanding nineteenth century narwhal tusk, Arctic. The tusk has a wonderful twisted shaft with beautiful spiral bands. The tusk has a naturally polished surface. This is an excellent example of a larger and heavier specimen of an antique narwhal tusk. (SC-936)
Condition: The tusk was used on an estate as an outdoor landscaping accent. As a result of its exposure to the weather, its patina is warmer and the tusk shows more age than if it was protected indoors. The surface has typical hairline cracks which further warm and excentuate the patina. There is a small loss to one edge of the tip. Dimensions: Height 86 inches; Diameter 2 inches.
