Zoology: Bones

The narwhal tusk KO-256 is a full 90 inches tall and 2 1/2 inches wide at the base. Our other narwhal tusk, KO-254 is a bit shy of 6 feet long and 2 1/4" wide at the base. Each tusk has a steel center to prevent bending or warping. A threaded steel rod protrudes from the end for attachment to the solid round base. Both the base and the rod are removable to allow for horizontal display. Each Bone Clones® narwhal tusk is expertly cast to reveal its delicate and beautiful spirals. Narwhals are cetaceans, most closely related to the familiar beluga whales often seen in marine parks around the world. Males have an amazing tooth, or tusk, that is unique in the animal kingdom. This tusk most often grows from the left hand side of their upper maxilla in a left-turning helix (spiral twist), reaching lengths of almost 10 feet in an animal that reaches only 16 feet itself.
