Ivory
Categories: 12x12, Natural Stone
Ivory is a natural stone which is light gray in color and is organic.
Over time, the practice of using this stone for decorative purposes declined as other materials became more common. However, some technologies were developed that enabled ivory to be used again for carving and polishing.
Ivory has been valued since ancient times for its beauty and durability. The stone has been used in both secular and sacred contexts throughout history.
It has a smooth, creamy texture and can be used for decorative purposes. The first use of ivory in art dates back to prehistoric times, but it was not until the Neolithic period that a craft industry grew around carving and polishing ivory into objects such as masks, war clubs and musical instruments.
It was the earliest known material used to make human art and ornaments. It’s an interesting material because it’s made from the tusks of elephants, and it has been used as a decorative gem for centuries.
