The tradition of Scrimshaw began over a century ago with the American whaling industry. During their long sea voyages, sailors passed the time by carving whale bone and whale teeth (ivory) into jewelry and other articles for their loved ones at home. This craft later became known as Scrimshaw.

The beautiful designs displayed on this page were produced by scrimshaw artists Brian Kiracofe and Pete Driscoll. The material used is legal ivory from recycled antique piano keys.
