One tanned Elephant ear. Good for having leather products made from. Or have cow leather products covered with the elephant leather.

It’s pricey.

But slightly cheaper than traveling, killing an elephant, tanning the hide, getting the permit and shipping it home.

$500

Altitude s. is that verticle or horizontal measure, thinking if it would cover a saddle and stirrups.
 
OK i see the 2nd measurement now
 
Elephant makes beautiful holsters….

It's awesome stuff. Just be careful. Buying or selling elephant leather isn't legal in CA, NY, NJ.

Sport-hunted ivory can't be sold or purchased across state lines. Passing it to heirs is a little bit of a grey area.
 
Much cheaper than what I’d part with some for.

Just be very careful, it can’t be sold in some many states and it can’t be sold across state lines. Lots of weird laws on Lion, Leopard, Rhino and Elephant
 
The laws are clear. New York, California and New Jersey are the only states I can not ship this to.

It’s been in the U.S. for many years. Not recent imports.

It was bought by me legally with other items at auction.

I have shipped pieces of this leather from this same auction lot several times to African Game Industries to have items made from. If it doesn’t sell. I’ll ship this to them to have items made from.

What an incredible deal!!!! I have my elephant ear with an Africa painting. From this you can make a bullet carrier or three, purse maybe a gun slip. This so rarely comes up and he has an awesome price!!!

I don’t think passing it onto heirs is a grey area at all actually
The selling across State lines is total bullshit but also 100% correct

Thanks for link! Wow you opened a can of worms. I have lots of hides!!
 
African Game Industries is very reasonable using your own leather. LeatherLinks also makes nice products from your own leather.
 
Have a pair of boots or shoes made. It's one of the toughest leathers. I have a pair of boots they have been resoled 4 times and stretched once because my feet got bigger. It will last decades longer than cowhide.

there is a lot of wrong info circulating. Sales are allowed if imported correctly.

All I know for sure is you are not supposed to traffic baby elephants across Canadian border. Shit…that mighta been snow leopard kittens across Minnesota border. LOL

When it comes to sales, I generally say if you’re not a lawyer practicing in the area at issue…maybe try to avoid publicly giving legal advice or tinkle on a fellow brother’s ad. So often folks think they know the law but the exceptions eclipse the rule altogether…

Like noted above…pretty sure Tony Llama ships ele boots across a state line or two. I’ll prove excited to see what kind of cool products you have made and hope to snatch up a thing or two.
