A curved segment of fossilized mammoth tusk with a dark, rough outer surface and pale ivory exposed within. The broken cross-sections reveal concentric layers, while the open, trough-like interior makes the tusk's structure particularly visible. Brown, gray and cream tones vary across the piece, contrasting the weathered exterior with the smoother inner surfaces. This is an incomplete tusk segment with extensive splitting, layered separation and irregular broken edges, as photographed. It measures approximately 11 by 10 by 4 inches and has a recorded weight of 1 pound, 12.8 ounces.
