The very last piece of this rare material that I had...just for fun here on TC Marketplace...A Maori Marakihau (Ocean Spirit) carved in 5000+ year old Minke Whale bone from the Arctic Circle. This is beautifully patinaed material and the pendant is it's natural color-no aging process needed on this material. The eyes are made from center cut abalone pieces given to me by Bamboo Ben that were personally gathered by Eli Hedley himself! This is a one-off piece from me that I carved in my spare (non-list) time! A very, very reasonable $125.00 price to the first person that PM's me!!
