Subject:Ivory Mark
Posted By: Gary Wed, Mar 25, 2015 IP: 108.76.228.80 I was wondering if anyone knows what this mark is on Ivory and if you can tell me what it says or what it means. Thank you so much |

Posted By: j. lewis Thu, Mar 26, 2015 It would help a lot if we could see a picture or two of the entire object, but if I had to guess the carving is very modern Chinese work from one of the HK poached ivory sweatshops and the mark is just a squiggle to enhance the "value." |

Posted By: Stan Thu, Mar 26, 2015 I don't believe this object is made from ivory. I believe the markings are just scribbles. I have no Asian language skills and wait to see what those that do say. |
