    A family piece, but origin not remembered. it looks like warthog tusk/ivory to me. Is that correct? It also looks African. Any ideas about tribe/area, age, etc.? It has to be several decades old at a minimum. Also, does this look like a tourist piece or a cranked out in numbers for export type of thing vs. something more unique?
