Title: Value of Elk Antler
Post by: horatio1226 on September 12, 2008, 04:34:00 PM

I got this piece of elk antler from a buddy here on Tradgang. I have somebody that's interested in it. Any idea of the value to a bowyer for a riser or 2? I know its a hard question but thought I would ask anyway. Thanks
Brian

The value is between what you want to get and what he will pay or about 12 bucks a pound at Antler Arts in central Oregon.

A piece that size? Give it to him and it will come back to you ten fold over time. You msy not get buried in antler but you will get rewarded.
