More Information

In overall good condition, for many years the panels were separated from the carcass, stored in two branches of the family's home, only now being reunited. The carcass is in good condition but needs feeding/polishing and should respond very well.
There are some losses to the carved buttress's sections, please examine the photographs.
There are losses to most panels, we have tried to show them, again please examine the images. We have shown the bone fissures on the white sections showing them to be bone not ivory, we have used UV light on them as well and they did not appear to light up
