Comments: The Faux Ivory is meticulously Ornamental Turned. -This is a centuries-old practice of decorating lathe-turned objects with complex patterns. -It is in some ways a form of carving with a lathe. There are similarities to Rose Engine turning, but OT traditionally uses Wood and Ivory. Ornamental turning was at its peak during the Victorian era and the name John Jacob Holtzapffel was synonymous with ornamental turning. He soon acquired the reputation of a maker of high-class lathes and tools, and his lathes enjoyed a great prominence amongst the wealthy scientific amateurs and royalty of both England and the continent. Some of these included Wilhelm III King of the Netherlands, Prince Augustus Saxe Coberg, a cousin of Queen Victoria, Archduke Otto Von Habsburg of Austria, and Queen Victoria herself.
