Set of eight carved ivory seals, some with silver tips. - Lot 98
Set of eight carved ivory seals, some with silver tips.
19th century
Height: 8 to 10 cm
The handles of these seals are made from the ivory of modern-day Proboscideans, and more specifically Elephantidae. In fact, the parameters for recognizing Elephantidae ivory are clearly visible in the form of the guilloche patterns typical of this family. Chasing, sculpting and polishing have been carried out to modify the original appearance of the raw ivory material. A beautiful antique patina characterizes this ivory.
Accompanied by a CITES certificate: Number (FR2409200118-K)
