Antique Natural Elephant Ivory Kohl-Eyeliner Vessel
20th Century · Hand-carved Angel Skin Ivory
One of the most intimate and personal objects a collector can own, this exquisite ivory kohl vessel — 60×19 mm — once held the cosmetic pigment that adorned the eyes of its owner, transforming a daily ritual into an act of quiet luxury. Carved from warm Angel Skin ivory with the precision and care that only the finest craftsmen could achieve, it is a miniature masterpiece of functional art. Feather-light at just 4 g, it sits in the palm with a delicate, almost jewel-like presence. Pristine condition — no chips, no cracks — and a genuinely rare survivor of a vanished world of personal adornment.
