- EARLY 1900S SCRIMSHAW CARVED WALRUS
EARLY 1900S SCRIMSHAW CARVED WALRUS TUSK CUPFeatured in this lot is this early 1900s scrimshaw walrus tusk cup. The term “scrimshaw” was coined in 18th Century America aboard a whaling vessel. There are Inuit ivory carving that pre and post-date the whaleman’s scrimshaw, which may indicate simultaneous development of this art form. As whaling faded at the turn of the 19th century so did the scrimshaw trade. However, in the 1960’s President John F. Kennedy’s collection created a revival in the creation and collection of this unique art. The piece shows a cylindrical shape and features scrimshaw on both flat parts of the cup. The scrimshaw shows a floral design of a small stick with six leaves, three on each side, in intricate detail. The piece shows fair condition as there are two long cracks on the flat parts of the cup, but no other signs of damage are present. The walrus tusk cup measures 1 1/8" L x 1 11/16" W x 2 7/8" H. The piece weighs 84.4 grams.
