<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 2718926, member: 8267&quot;]All elephant ivory has the structures that appear as schreger lines - it is the way it grows, and is a unique characteristic of elephant ivory. But it is not always easy to see them on an object, depending on what surfaces are visible and how the surface has been finished. Sometimes you have to examine carefully, tipping the object in the light. It is one of those cases where you can&#039;t exclude elephant ivory if you can&#039;t find schreger lines, but if you <i>can</i> find genuine schreger lines then you can be confident that the object is elephant ivory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
