Yep. It is the "trade" name of a type of yellowish celuloid that is grained to resemble ivory. it has been around for years. It is used for binding, trim and tuning pegs on Ukes, (and guitars, etc.) but I have also seen it used in vintage hand mirrors, combs, brushes, stuff like that. it is also called "ivorine" and "French Ivory" |
