Wisconsin Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Scrimshaw: elaborate carvings in the form of pictures and lettering on the surface of bone or tooth, with the engravings highlighted using a pigment, or small sculptures made from the same material. Uppie, My 86 year old mother found a scrimshaw artist's shop in Door County Wisconsin this summer and we stopped by to gawk. Wow, and the history of the art is amazing. Ironically, I ended up buying a wood carving of a woodcock done by a local artist. My mother bought a purse with a bone carving on the handle. Ken Link to post Share on other sites
