Questions About African Ivory Statues
- What is African ivory?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021African ivory is a hard, white substance derived from the tusks and teeth of elephants, hippopotami, walruses, warthogs, sperm whales, and narwhals, as well as now-extinct mammoths and mastodons. For millennia, ivory has been a status symbol — it is a rare and alluring material, a luxury product that is derived from elephants, a highly respected animal in Africa and elsewhere.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The purpose of West African statues varies from culture to culture. Often, African artisans produce statues to use in religious rituals. They may serve as offerings to gods or perform other functions during ceremonies. Shop a variety of West African statues on 1stDibs.
