Day 2
Poor sad ivory keys..... Obviously abused, waiting in my shop to be lovingly restored.
This is part of what I do. Using acrylic material for repairs and old ivory keytops salvaged when replacing whole sets with new plastic, I try to restore some semblance of dignity to ivory keys that have been mistreated or overused. I think in this case, whacked by some little kid with a toy truck or some such thing - a common occurrence. Ivory is such a lovely material, it's too bad that obtaining it causes such destruction to natural order.
