This is an authentic Lahaina Scrimshaw pendant, hand-engraved on genuine fossil walrus ivory.
The design depicts a Hawaiian island scene with palm trees, hibiscus flowers, mountains, ocean waves, and a rainbow. Its signed. I believe by Bill Christianson. Lahaina Scrimshaw was located in downtown Lahaina, Maui, a well-known workshop active in the late 20th century.
I personally worked in the shop and can confirm its origin. This piece is at least 25 years old, making it a genuine example of Lahaina’s scrimshaw artistry.
