Custom Woolly Mammoth Ivory Straight Razor

Woolly mammoth ivory is huge these days and here we have an elegant option for men looking to indulge. Derrick Cruz, the talent behind Black Sheep & Prodigal Sons, has created a beautiful and one-of-a-kind handmade Mammoth Straight Razor. The razor features a sheath made of 10,000-year-old woolly mammoth ivory, a fully restored vintage stainless steel blade, and a 19th century quartz Stanhope lens containing vintage micro-photography. The razor can be personalized with your own custom image on the lens and Scrimshaw engravings on the sheath for an even more unique gift.

The Mammoth Straight Razor comes packaged in a laser-engraved salvaged wood case with a black linen drawstring sleeve and a quarter ounce of Renaissance Wax for keeping the ivory looking its best. $3,500

The world is becoming ever more conscious of fair trade goods and ethically responsible indulgences like gems and jewelry, and Monique Péan is making that effort all the more beautiful with her nature inspired designs. And not only are many of her creations beautiful and made of rare ancient ivory (the necklace pictured here is made with 12,000 year old mammoth ivory and sells for $25,000) but 50% of her C:W (Charity: Water) collection goes towards providing water and sanitation to disadvantaged people.
