Beautiful stylized head in carved ivory, mangbetu dated 1914. Specimen made of Elephantidae spp ivory is classified A Annex I under the Washington Convention and A Annex A of European Community Regulation 338/97 of 09/12/1996. In view of its age, this specimen is well before June 1, 1947. As a result, commercial use in the EU is permitted. On the other hand, for an exit from the EU, a CITES re-export will be necessary, this being the responsibility of the future buyer.
