Authentic Vintage Sperm Whale Tooth – Mid 1970s Soviet Whaling Fleet | Scrimshaw Etched
This authentic vintage sperm whale tooth is a rare and historically significant piece, originally sourced from the Soviet whaling fleet in the mid-1970s. It comes from a private collection and is accompanied by all necessary CITES documentation, making it fully legal to own and export.
Measuring 7.2 inches in length and weighing approximately 1.5 pounds, this solid and substantial tooth features a scrimshaw etching of a dolphin on one side—done in classic maritime style. The etching adds to its character, but can also be easily sanded off if a clean surface is preferred for display or personal customization.
Crafted by nature and preserved with care, the tooth is 100% solid bone, with no cracks or hollow areas—perfect for collectors, scrimshaw artists, or maritime history enthusiasts.
