How can you tell the difference between bone and ivory? I'm going to go over that today. One of these is ivory and the other one is bone. Which is which? Bone is more porous, so if you look closely in the picture shown, you'll see that there's little black dots. Those little black dots are holes because bones are porous. The other one is the ivory piece. You'll see striations. It's a natural substance, so you'll see a grain here, and you'll see that in the pictures as well.
