What is Mammoth Ivory & Bone? Is it legal?

The Mammoth is part of a species of elephant which is extinct nowadays. Its characteristics are his enormous tusks and his long, hairy coat. The Mammoth lived in Eurasia and America until the last ice age.

The Mammoth Ivory is the oldest plastic material in the history of art and culture. Today experts still find some around the Arctic Circle, in the Permafrost. They use one part for their scientific analysis and sell the rest to artisans like Laguiole en Aubrac.

Little cracks and fractures and the different shades of colors are a result of the conservation lasting thousands of years and they give this fascinating material its remarkable character.

Jewellery and sculptures made of Mammoth Ivory are therefore unique pieces.
