Re: 1960's Faux Elephant Tusks upright decoration marble or...

These are the closest to yours that I’ve found https://www.chairish.com/product/2511328/faux-elephant-tusk-sculptures-a-pair
That page has an ask the seller feature so they might be able to tell you more. The ones there are a bit taller but very similar.
Here’s another very similar pair https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/decorative-objects/sculptures/mounted-objects/pair-of-maitland-smith-tessellated-faux-elephant-tusks/id-f_6832883/ makes me think yours would be the same maker Maitland Smith.
And this one with the base a bit different https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/decorative-objects/sculptures/natural-specimens/pair-of-tessellated-travertine-marble-faux-tusk/id-f_15685461/ Marquis Collection of Beverly Hills
