There are 3x grades of synthetic and real IVORY that we sell. By 3x grades we mean 2x are synthetic sheets as follows;

1. Polymin ORIGINAL sheet (imitation Ivory), these are 8" x 12" or 203 x 305mm in size and 0.15mm thick. While this is very thin the antique ivory colouring makes the sheets only semi translucent. the sheets have been in use for the last 40 years for archival applications without degradation. The surface is matt finished. The cost per sheet is AUD$36.75 each.
2. Standard IVORINE sheet (imitation Ivory), these are 5 3/4" x 7 3/4" or 146 x 196mm in size and 0.5mm thick. The sheet has a semi translucency to it and is a near white colour. The cost per sheet is AUD$38.00 each.
3. MAMMOTH IVORY pieces, yes you read correctly, the real thing. These are 50 x 40mm which is mighty small, but just the right size for a single brooch or small framed miniature finished work. The thickness is 0.5mm. Over 10,000 year old of Russian origin, these pieces are selected, cut and finished by specialist craftsmen. One side has a smooth matt surface and is specially marked and ready for your work. The cost per piece is AUD$64.60 each. There are no legal or ethical constraints associated with its use.
