The United Nations Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) does not prohibit the trade of processed mammoth ivory. Mammoth ivory is a prehistoric fossil. Due to climate change, much of the mammoth ivory is unsuitable for carving. Only about 15% of high-quality ice-grade mammoth ivory can be used for carving. It is a scarce, non-renewable resource, often referred to as "white gold," sought after by governments worldwide. As a precious artifact, its rarity has led to restrictions on its excavation. Mammoth ivory is highly regarded in the market due to its legality and rarity, making it a valuable collectible. Celebrated for its exquisite, luxurious, durable, and precious qualities, it has earned the reputation of an "organic gemstone." It holds significant potential for appreciation as an investment and collectible. Frequently mentioned in Buddhist scriptures, it holds a revered and sacred status in Buddhism, symbolizing warding off evil, attracting blessings, calming the spirit, and stabilizing the home. Shavings from carving can be used medicinally to calm seizures, soothe the nerves, and also to relieve dampness and detoxify. It can even be used in beauty treatments! Grades of Mammoth Ivory: When we refer to mammoth ivory, we generally mean the tusks of mammoths. There are primarily four types of mammoth ivory material: ice-grade, frozen soil grade, soil grade, and molars. Among these four, most consider ice-grade mammoth ivory to be the best. Ice-grade: Material preserved within ice layers, considered the finest. Due to the low-temperature, sealed storage environment, the ivory is preserved cleanly and completely, free from spots or cracks, possessing excellent quality. Frozen soil grade: As the name suggests, it originates from frozen soil. Its quality is slightly inferior to ice-grade, with more cracks, but it offers a richer variety of colors. It is cleaner and purer than soil grade and is quite popular in the market. Soil grade: Generally considered the lowest grade. It involves significant waste, frequent calcification, and poor luster and smoothness, making it difficult to meet carving requirements. Its price is relatively lower. Molars: Mammoth molars. Most have fossilized. A small portion requires processing before being made into accessories, with a different texture from the other three types. **Cang An** Twilight brews moonlight into honey, Wafting across the windowsill, the wind whispers in the prayer flag's folds. The distant mountains embrace the sunset, holding folded secrets of peace. Clouds gently veil the earth's creases as we distill our wishes Into amber ripples, Each star holding footnotes of blessings. When breath flows over the tree rings, Silence naturally blossoms into Bodhi. All journeys find their return, And in this moment, mountains and rivers still their breath, All things ripening into cocoons of tranquility in the palm of the hand. **Product Description**: This ice-grade mammoth ivory 'Ping An' bracelet features an inner diameter of 54mm, fitting most wrist sizes.
