Using real ivory from a 400 lb cache of sperm whale teeth which I acquired in a trade for rum in 1972, I carve my own original designs, such as the 'crescent moon' and 'merteddy', into pendants - as seen in the top section of this page. I also do larger commission works, such as the eagle head whole tooth sculpture, the peace pipe and the humpback whale disk, all of which you can see at the bottom of this page. These works are a selection from many successful commissions completed during the past 30 years.
