VERY nice work. The mammoth tooth in the backround would look great with the bolsters.

Ron, years ago, I inlayed some bolsters with 24K gold scroll ---- The scales were mamoth ivory. I found that using Birchwood Casey plum brown on the bolsters, I received a soft brown background that cpmplimented the soft 24K gold and tan ivory. Something you might try. FWIW, Ken
