A FRIEND FOR TEA is a delightful and unusual ivory and serpentine carving.

A tusk (ivory) has been carved into a tea spoon.

Take a close look as the end of the spoon.

Spoon collectors know that this is where the decoration that identifies the origin of the spoon (Canada, France, Belgium) is located.

This spoon originates from the Canadian Arctic.

Lucassie very cleverly has placed a tiny seal at the spoon end.

Nakoolak is demonstrating his remarkable skills.

HOW DO YOU CARVE A PERFECT ONE CENTIMETRE SEAL!!

The ivory spoon rests on a gorgeous dark green stone. 

The contrast is elegant.

Do you know anyone who collects spoons? 

This would be the perfect addition to their collection.
