Ok, now THIS is new to me...

I was working on this nice J. Engstrom, and after pulling the blade, left this downstairs in the workshop overnight. Basement is about 20 deg cooler than upstairs, so one might expect a little condensation to form on the chilled steel. But I have never seen this much moisture form on the scales. And no, there was NO moisture on the steel.

Has anybody else ever seen this phenomena? Should I be worried about these scales being detrimental to the health of the razor?
As far as I can tell, the scales are NOT bone or ivory.
