Additional Information: The Woolly Mammoth lived during the Pleistocene that was 2.58 Million to 11,700 years ago. This Mammoth had large ivory tusks and is related to an extinct elephant genus and was about the size of today's African Elephants. The Woolly Mammoth coexisted with early humans who hunted these animals for food. However, they became extinct at the end of the Pleistocene probably because of climate change and hunting. The Woolly Mammoth Ivory I use comes from Siberia. Most of these fossils come from native people who collect them on river banks and from various digging sites. This particular piece is from near the bark of the tusk and has multi-colors.

Ebony is a super dense black wood that will sink in water. The wood takes on a beautiful smooth finish when polished and can sometimes have brownish colored streaks. Ebony is considered an ornamental wood and historically was used for the black keys of a piano. Cameroon ebony comes from the Western Africa nation of Cameroon and was legally obtained. This wood is one of the most expensive of all woods and provides a nice contrast to the Woolly Mammoth Ivory.
