<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 415396, member: 8267&quot;]Could be the base of a large tusk, where that conical hollow would be apparent. It appears to be unfinished/unpolished, so difficult to see the diagnostic characteristics of ivory, but the cracks look genuine. If it were a block of resin, it seems unlikely they would reproduce the interior structure of a tusk - they would just make a block. They would also probably just cast the thing, rather than carve it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
