Ivory and Rhino Horn Policy

Ivory and Rhino Horn Policy

Toovey’s abhor and condemn the poaching of all species, especially African elephants and rhinoceroses. We only sell items that we are permitted to sell by law. These pieces are likely to be purchased as pieces of artistic or cultural merit, such as portrait miniatures, which happen to contain ivory, rather than be purchased for their ivory or rhino horn content.

This is in line with current standards and Toovey’s will continue to monitor and abide by the law regarding the sale of ivory and rhino horn.
