Tako-Octopus  

 Material: Sperm Whale Tooth + Merino sheep horn + Bull Horn 

This octopus Netsuke is beautifully done by using natural colour of the material.

White part is the outside of the tooth and yellower part is the inside ivory. Octopuses change their body colour, so I used the material feature to give it reality.  Sold
