<p>[QUOTE="Malcolm, post: 1850099, member: 14046"]I don't actually mind your thoughts on the eagle carving because I put the carving on here to gain your thoughts and examine my own. The thing that puzzled me was why would someone not sign such a beautiful carving..... after reading everyone's thought I may have stumbled on the reason for the anonymous carving.</p><p>It's not anonymous at all and it was not carved by hand but by a machine in Asia or Indonesia and sent for sale to a dealer here in North America. I also know now the eagle is not ivory but bone. The bottom has been carved like the eagle was perched on a tree stump. I do thank you for your explanation and I will say it and all the others on this forum really helped me.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
