Three Inuit Carved Walruses on a Fossilized Ivory Sled Runner

This is quite a piece. It is a fossilized ivory section of a sled runner lying on its side with three carved ivory walruses. The tusks on the walrus are transparent sections of seal whiskers, one of which is missing on one of the walrus. The use of the sled runner with all its holes makes the piece unusually interesting.
