    Where are you seeing "markings?" Whoops I see them now and my answer to your question would be probably not. I've never seen a real one with a copyright mark, a company name and a date in the 2000s.

    It also does not look like ivory (probably resin) and I cannot tell whether the 2 holes for the cord actually merge inside the figure. Can you?

    Molded resin, whether or not the holes meet up.

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Looks kind of 'waxy' to me.....as said above....maybe resin?
