Pics of real Ivory handles?
I was at an antique store this evening and went there to purposedly look at the H. Boker in this collection of razors in a case that said Ivory handle. I looked and it is light yellow and has streaks (faint) running parallel to each other, but it looked no different than some of my razors I have. I do have a J.A. Henckels that has an "ivor" look about it, but it's streaks are mingled more, not clearly defined. I also saw a letter opener that was marked "Ivory" and, upon looking at it with my magnifying glass I carried, I pointed out the 3 round "dots" where the plastic injection mold must have been used. Not ivory.
What are some of the pics of Ivory handles? How does one discern Ivory over faux or look alike ivory?~~ Vern ~~
I was born with nothing and managed to keep most of it.
