Ivory Carver
Do to his immense tusks being quite a valuable source the tips can be cut off and used to make pieces of jewelry.
Due to the slow regrowth rate at four inches every 2 irl weeks this service will be reserved for his owner only currently the Golden Tether until sold. Renters are not to saw off his ivory as they are currently Tether property. The ivory must not be removed at the root so it will retain the ability to regrow. Damage to any tooth root will result in fines or imprisonment for poaching. If a patron wishes to harvest a piece of tusk; if stock is not available they must seek approval from a Tether staff who will oversee the procedure to measure the lengths being removed.
Current ivory - Can be brought through select Tether Merchants or Staff
