Whale Tooth Billiken

“Whale Tooth Billiken” from the collection of one of our clients who is no longer with us. Probably carved in Alaska by talented unknown carver. Well done work on a nice whale’s tooth. Small chip on the backside of the tip. Brings a smile to your face. Collector got this in 1993. Good value!

This scrimshaw is done on a sperm whale’s tooth. Federal legislation bans the interstate shipment of whale ivory. It can only be shipped intrastate (within the state). All of our whale ivory is located with our associate in the state of Florida. It can be purchased directly from our website and shipped only to an address within the state of Florida. If one has a relative, trusted friend or business associate within the state of Ohio, we can ship to that specified address in order to comply with Federal legislation. The scrimshaw can then be forwarded to you and everyone complies with the law. Any questions, email or call us.
