Subject:UK Is it illegal to buy vintage real Tortoiseshell carved items?
Posted By: M Mon, Dec 18, 2017 IP: 2.96.111.20

I have an opportunity to buy this ornament (heavily carved) which I don’t know if it’s real tortoiseshell or not. It looks vintage to me and I want to buy it, but if it is real, I don’t want to break any laws. Even if it’s fake tortoiseshell, I still want to buy it.
