🧵 What is Scrimshaw?
Scrimshaw is a sailor’s art form from the 18th–19th centuries, involving etching images into whale ivory or bone and rubbing pigment into the lines. Traditional subjects included tall ships, mermaids, and seafaring life. This tie tack mimics that timeless look—without harming marine life—using mid-century materials.
🧭 A classic Americana piece that can be worn as a tie tack or repurposed as a lapel pin or brooch.
