Beautiful all natural Mammoth arm with hand or front leg. The foot is composed out of 24 bones from the big ankle bones till the tiny unguals on the toes. Adding the arm Ulna and radius and we end up with a leg composed of a total of 26 bones. All bones originate from the North Sea brown banks of the coast of the Netherland and have been treated for perfect preseration. By the decline of traditional fishing techniques only rarely such qualitative foot bones are still dredged up. We were lucky to acquire an old collection of over 1000 bones, which made it possible to compose this leg with bones of the correct size and osteologically correct. Very rare aesthetic collection item.
