Ivory
No Ivory will be used, regardless of type, source or age.
The only exception being, if Ivory is an existing part of an old instrument, it will be reused, to maintain originality.
Also the instrument must comply with the UK law exemption "Musical instruments comprising of less than 20% ivory by volume, and produced before 1975"
If the existing Ivory cannot be reused, or is missing, it will be replaced with a substitute.
