<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 253773, member: 4654"]I collect Indian antiques, the quality doesn't matter, Ivory dots such as these were very cheap as the smallest off cuts were used, the expensive pieces were the large pieces such as the top and bottom of ivory boxes where the whole raids needed to be used. The ebony cost far more. Anyway your piece isn't that bad and these have gone up in price quite considerably in the last year. If you need to sell it just call it bone, anyone wishing to buy it will know they are ivory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
