This ivory-colored teetotum is carved from the bone of a buffalo. The luxurious spinning top features intricate scrollwork and decorative stem elements which are as lovely to touch as they are to behold. A solid brass weight is encased within the body of the top and an iron sphere is embedded in the tip to facilitate precision rotation. Carved by master craftsman, Armin Kolb, an artisan with over forty years of experience turning the finest tops in the world.

Owen T. ★★★★★

I keep it on my desk and find myself spinning it during calls — the ivory bone feels cool and smooth, and the carved scrollwork has this subtle texture under my thumb. The stem is weighted nicely too, so it spins way longer than I expected for something this small.

Thomas L. ★★★★★

The scrollwork on this little top is genuinely intricate, not stamped or molded-looking, and it has a nice weight in the hand. I keep it on my desk and find myself spinning it while I think. The carved stem is smooth enough that my thumb just rests there.
