Carvings: Mammoth Ivory
Mammoth ivory comes from the extinct mammoth elephant. It is found mainly in Alaska and Siberia. It looks like the ivory from the African elephant, but is softer and more expensive. There are some superb mammoth ivory craftsmen in China, both in the quality of craftsmanship and in the designs.
