Carved woolly mammoth figurine

Hand-carved woolly mammoth figurine in fossil Siberian mammoth ivory (Mammuthus primigenius), sculpted from a single solid piece of stabilized mammoth ivory. Deep blue and cream tones run through the natural grain, while the curved tusks were carved separately and set into the skull. Fine hand-worked coat texture and a free-standing base give the sculpture a strong natural presence.

A unique, one-of-a-kind Ice Age piece for collectors of mammoth ivory, natural history objects and prehistoric art.

Geological epoch: Pleistocene.
Age: Over 10,000 years.
Origin: Sakha Republic (Yakutia).
