Is there a reliable way to distinguish ivory from bone carved items?

Elk Ivory?

Elk supposedly have ivory teeth as well, and jewelry is made from it. I don't know enough about it to add to the article however. Someone may want to look into it. 74.211.30.145 (talk) 16:32, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What is Ivory?

Ivory is from elephants, other such "ivory" from walrus etc is not true ivory. I removed such references 4.142.96.82 20:38, 21 August 2007 (UTC)Eric[reply]

Where is the chemical structure of the Ivory and it's formula? This article doesn't meets minimum standards without it. 84.228.201.191 07:26, 1 May 2007 (UTC) Erez Weingarten[reply]

Japanese hanko industry?

This sounds like complete nonsense. I've never seen an actual hanko owned by anyone that was made of anything other than wood or sometimes plastic. I'm sure it's possible to have an ivory one custom-made for an exorbitant price, it's probably about as common as somebody in the West getting fitted with diamond-studded gold teeth. This comment sounds like typical anti-Japanese rhetoric, probably originating (ironically) in one of those countries where where they go around lopping off tiger penises to make magic potions.--220.29.92.30 (talk) 14:13, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
