VINTAGE IVORY FROM EGYPT………Circa 1942

My father was stationed in the Middle East, China and Burma during World War II and this is some of the ivory he brought home with him. Ivory has been banned in the U.S. thankfully so it is illegal to buy or sell it. Sadly Elephants are still being hunted for their ivory tusks in some countries. This is all hand carved including the beads it’s close to 70 years old and will always stay in my collection of my most Loved Possessions : )
