Scrimshaw, the art of
etching on whales tooth or bone was practiced by early Vineyarders
who manned may of the 19th century whaling ships that sailed
out of New England ports and spanned the globe in search of whales.
Today Barlow Designs is the master at carrying on this
art. Their piece are done on polymer which faithfully reproduces
the color and feel of the original but protects the endangered
whale population. Here are five Martha's Vineyard designs that
reflect this ancient artform. Made In The USA. |
