Description:
The elephant is a much-admired animal, but it is also endangered. The ivory from its tusks has been in great demand across the centuries and throughout all cultures. What sort of material is it? How has it been used in the past and the present? And what can we do today to protect the world's largest mammals from poachers? This lavishly illustrated volume embarks on a journey through cultural history and takes up a contemporary position.
Ivory fascinates. As long as 40,000 years ago people carved mammoth tusks into artful figures and musical instruments, and it remains popular as a material to this day. Ivory polarises, because the animal's tusks also stand for injustice and violence. The exploitation of man and nature, the threatened extinction of the elephant, poaching and organised crime are phenomena which we associate with ivory. The publication approaches the subject critically and poses the question as to our responsibility in our dealings with both animal and material.

Great wine/Red Furry Soft Throw Blanket, it’s GREAT!
Color: Wine Red, Size: Throw(50"x60")
Bought this Wine (Red) Throw Furry Blanket for my Grandson. He loves it, I love it, his Mom and Dad love it. It washes beautifully, it doesn’t shed, it’s thick, soft, just beautiful. It’s the perfect Soft Furry Throw Blanket and it keeps him warm and happy. Would I buy it again? Absolutely, again and again!

Super soft and cozy!
Color: Pink, Size: Twin(60"x80")
Love it! Super soft, perfect weight. I bought the pink/dusty rose color and it’s beautiful. I washed it once and did held up and didn’t shed. I will update my review if it starts to fall apart, but so far, very happy with my purchase. The throw blanket seems to be good quality, great price… did I mention I love it?
