Jim Stevens. This guide is a dazzling showcase of this
uniquely American art form. The pages are filled with
tips, techniques and insights that both educate and
demonstrate the steps to creating authentic and
beautiful scrimshaw. An examination of ivory includes a
wide range of alternative natural and man-made ivory
substitutes, including bone, horn and nuts. Without
question, this is the most complete technical and
aesthetic book ever written in the field. With over 200
color photos, this step-by-step guide addresses
scrimshaw tools, patterns, inking and inlays. Originally
written as a training manual for studio apprentices,
this knowledge is now available to you. 160 pages. SC.
