Scrimshaw Jewelry - A true American Art
View this Collection

Hand Etched Scrimshaw - Scrimshaw is an art of etching designs on ivory or many other surfaces.

Scrimshaw began with the Eskimos of North America and was developed further by the old Whalers.  The whalers would scrib designs on their tall ships and whaling scenes on whales teeth using sailing needles and knives. 

Scrimshaw is a true American Art.

My Scrimshaw is hand etched on antique ivory, imitation ivory, mother-of-pearl and horn.

The scrim jewelry pieces are hard to keep listed on here as they do sell well at the shows for me.  If you see any you like just email me and I can work one that is similar.
