Product Overview
This stunning replica Sperm Whale Tooth is part of the collection at the Nantucket Whaling Museum. The title of this tooth is called "Black Eagle". It is a replica of an Antique Tooth that was originally made by Artek for the Nantucket Whaling Museum. The front of the replica tooth has the Black Eagle Whaling Ship, with an Eagle over head. The home port of "New Bedford" and the Captain's Name, "Captain Edwin White" are etched inside a banner on the front of the tooth. On the back is an Eagle face with an American Flag design. The original was etched over 100 years ago. The reproduced tooth is currently made in our office in Fall River, MA. The finish is made to recreate the look of an antique tooth.

The resin scrimshaw piece is hand etched on corian, which cuts like ivory. We then make a mold of the original piece and do an open cast pour of our resin mixture. The pieces are removed from the mold and sanded and inked.
We believe that serving nature is one of the commissions that we as humans have been given here on earth. We wish to lend our resources to those charged with protecting elephants from poaching for their ivory.
On a monthly basis we donate to organizations whose purpose to protect the elephants and other species throughout the planet. We focus our donations on organizations that put the money to good use and have a low overhead. With the majority of incoming funds going back to saving the elephants!
