[QUOTE="reader, post: 695370, member: 255"]Interesting conversation and those in the U.K. are so much better off as sellers and buyers of ivory than we are in the US where almost all of it is illegal to sell. Since those in the U.K. can buy and sell pre mid century pieces at markets there are definite outlets. We have none here and so mine sits in drawers. I still think it’s beautiful and not wearing it isn’t going to bring back the animals but I’ve gotten too many nasty comments so I no longer put it to use which is that much more a waste.[/QUOTE]
