This faux whale's tooth with a scrimshaw design of the ship "The Brandenberg" measures 5 1/2" tall (14cm) and approximately 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in diameter. On the one side is the image of the ship The Brandenberg, a sailing ship reminiscent of the 19th century. The other side depicts the image of a horse and lion on either side of a coat of arms and presumably the British Royal Crown atop of it all. Tooth has a good heavy feel to it, but not quite the weight of the real thing. This item was purchased close to 20 years ago at an auction with some other things and has been stored away in our basement. It's time for it to find a new home w someone will display it and enjoy it. Winning bidder pays shipping. Package weighs just slightly under a pound, (15 oz.).
