I'm pleased to offer this incredibly carved whale ivory bodkin.  This wonderful carved whimsey likely made by a sailor while on a whaling expedition. Bodkins were used by sailors as a needle for their sails. A very desirable piece of whaling history the incredible carving on this tiny 4" ivory whimsey topped by a carved clinched fist.

(#3666C)      $350
