The official GemStone IV encyclopedia.
Ivory is traditionally the substance an elephant's tusk is made of. In Elanthia, it likely also applies to a mammoth's tusk, though any substance made of any animal's teeth or tusk is ivory.[1]

Average values listed are approximations and are generally taken from the sell values of a character selling gems with no trading bonus. See the Trading article for more information on variations of sell values.
an age-darkened ivory crescent
| Description: Worn down by the ungentle touch of sand and wind, the crescent of ivory is darkened with age to an unenven nut brown hue. The faintest hints of carvings glide along its surface, but they are neither deep nor consistent enough to suggest their original intent.

a chunk of age-darkened ivory
| Description: Smoothed by the work of long years, the chunk of ivory is so old that its white surface has darkened to a rich brown. Only the faintest hints of old carvings mar its smooth surface, and they have been reduced by erosion to sinuous lines that are barely visible.

a piece of polished ivory
| Description: Apparently a fragment of a large creature's tusk, this chunk of ivory has been polished to a high gloss; whether by nature or man, you cannot tell.
