<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 162659, member: 360&quot;]REAL ivory will NEVER be 100% smooth, or 100% perfect. This is because it&#039;s a natural product. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s some ivory from my own collection. You can see the blemishes and the marks on the handle of the knife: </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/84/43/e9/8443e92a7f4c546bd94f017da4ccef2b.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s more ivory. You can see the colour variation from sheet to sheet: </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/7c/f0/19/7cf019fbe3fab3c440fe2ce034ee8acc.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>You can also see the lines and the striations. </p><p><br /></p><p>Plastic wouldn&#039;t have all this, because plastic is manmade and meant to be perfect. Ivory changes constantly from animal to animal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
