Hi Everyone!
I am new to this website and I wanted to share this rare piece I found! I am not sure if it's made out of bone but it's quite unique compass/ magnefying glass pretty interesting.

This is known as Scrimshaw. Yes, this is carved on bone. Where did you find it?
Here's another one, different carving:

Quite interesting!! Thank You! It looks identical! I found it in a box stack of papers in a storage.
You're welcome!
I like Bonnie's better ! LOL
The compass on this one is much more beautiful. I love it!
