<p>[QUOTE="RomanK, post: 11178387, member: 85430"]A commemorative plaque made from mammoth tusk. The obverse depicts a Yakut man on a reindeer sleigh, and the reverse bears the inscription, "In memory of the harsh northern region. The village of Tiksi, 1988." What I like about these items is that they are one-of-a-kind.</p><p>My brother lived in Yakutia for a long time and carved mammoth tusks, so I had the opportunity to handle many of them. They differ from elephant tusks and are the only resource permitted for private harvesting.</p><p>It looks very good on the shelf)</p><p><br /></p><p>Regards, Lib13.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
