Lot # 99A - Lot of Three Ivory / Bone Letter Openers with Carved Seal and Elephant. Very pretty ivory pieces ornately carved. One is a large chunky handle with a metal edge for opening the letter, the other two are solid ivory, one with a carved seal as a handle, the other with an ornately carved elephant at the tip. All in very good condition.
Disclaimer: This Ivory collection was owned by Hazel Hammer Humphrey (1881- 1972). Most pieces were acquired during her extensive travels in her early years, the rest were mail ordered from Israel, many with the original packaging. She was the only owner and as with everything else in the home/museum, the items were documented. We have contacted both the Federal and State Fish and Wildlife Service to make certain we are in compliance. We are however, only selling them in-state. Pick up only.
