This is a part of a giant clam tooth that was deposited on a WA beach by cyclone some years ago. It was slightly longer (20cm) but I cut a base to show these features. The pitting along outside of tooth is a natural oceanic reference to the iconic wood engraving 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa' by Hokusai while the 'rear' view shows a beluga whale breaching in Antarctic seas.
