Piano key ivory

(1/3) > >>

Mesophilic:
My neighbor is hauling off an old piano to the dump.  I popped the ivory off the keys, cause no sense in wasting good legal ivory.

Aside from inlay, anyone have some other interesting ideas I could do with it?

osage outlaw:
I used them in tip overlays

Stoker:
Don't forget the Ebony keys. 8)
Thanks

Handforged:
scrimshaw? Not sure how thick the ivory is on some of those older pianos. Some had solid keys while others were just a thin veneer about 1/16" thick.

Mesophilic:
These are the thin veneers, as you described about 1/16" thick.
