The tooth has a well-preserved crown, ivory to beige in color, with darker shades visible on the surface, particularly at the junction between the crown and the roots. Its shape shows a relatively massive crown, surmounting two distinct primary roots, typical of a medium to large herbivorous or omnivorous mammal tooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tooth's surface displays a natural patina, with signs of wear and small brown marks, attesting to its age and authenticity. Anatomical details are clearly visible: grooves, reliefs, and furrows on the crown, as well as a smooth texture on the roots. No major chips are visible on the exposed side, but some microcracks and wear points are discernible, characteristic of a specimen used by the animal for feeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dominant color is a yellowed ivory, typical of ancient teeth, with localized brown contrasts that enhance the vintage and naturalistic appearance of the object. The tooth is positioned vertically in the photo, leaning against a white support, which highlights its elongated shape and the clear separation of the two roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis natural tooth is an excellent choice for lovers of taxidermy, natural curiosities, or decor inspired by 19th-century cabinets of curiosities. It can also be suitable for reconstituting osteological sets, for comparative study, or as an original decorative element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo inscriptions, marks, or references are visible on the tooth itself. The texture, color, and general shape correspond to specimens usually sought after for vintage decoration or naturalistic study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
