Each wedge is about 1 1/16" long and 1/4" wide on the natural outside surface edge (shown in first photo), these would make a nice short pendant or earrings if shaped and polished, price is for 1 piece.  The fine edge of the wedge has been sanded flat so the pieces will stand as shown in the first photo.  You will receive a piece like these. As of 8/21/24 we only have 11 of these.

Dirty ivory can be scrubbed with soap and water and a tooth brush to take off the dirt and soaked in hydrogen peroxide (not bleach) to whiten. Sanding and buffing also take of the dirt and make it glassy smooth and transform it into beautiful jewelry.  When our limited stock of genuine pre-1972 narwhal tusk ivory pieces is gone there will be no more…forever.

 We are selling off these pieces that came from the J.L. Houston Company, a company that imported and used all types of ivory in their manufacturing for the Alaskan ivory trade from the 1950’s until the 1990’s. This narwhal ivory was imported in the 1960’s from Pond Inlet, Nunavut Canada where the narwhal are still hunted by the Inuit. So: "To the best of our knowledge and belief this narwhal ivory predates the 1972 marine Mammal Protection Act and is legal to ship within the U.S.  The J. L. Houston Company has been closed for years and when this ivory is gone that is the end of it.
