    24F4D330-E91E-4370-9CE8-5D444C806EFB.jpeg Some type of ivory it seems. This is all I have to go off unfortunately. I’m guessing it’s not too much bigger than a bottle cap.

    Edit: Japanese?

    Quite possibly. They were supposed to be Inuit pieces. There was a turtle and some other stuff that didn’t look Inuit to me so I wasn’t too sure. I assume turtles don’t make it that far north since they are cold blooded. This piece was interesting to me.
