Antique Natural Elephant Ivory Belt – Hand-carved

20th Century · Hand-carved Angel Skin Ivory · Exceptional Collection Piece

There are objects that stop you in your tracks — and this is one of them. An 880 mm hand-carved ivory belt, 35 mm wide and weighing 237.5 g, is among the most extraordinary and singular pieces we have ever had the privilege of offering. To conceive of a belt carved entirely from elephant ivory — and then to execute it with the skill and patience this piece demands — speaks to a level of ambition and craftsmanship that belongs to another era entirely. The warm Angel Skin ivory flows the full length of the belt with a deep, luminous warmth, every millimetre worked by hand. In very clean condition given its remarkable age, this is not merely a collector’s piece — it is a conversation, a provocation, and a once-in-a-lifetime find.
