Description
I am not sure what the tusk was used for , possibly a horn or pipe. I will need help with Identification. It has a deep orange patina most likly resulting in repeated applications of palm oil and years of handling. Looks like Congo (Yombe subgroup) but again I'm unsure, and could use help in identification of what culture may have created it. It looks like ivory , but correct me if I,m wrong.
