 "Diffused" lighting was used for these photos, to reduce glare and better show color and detail.  The tooth's enamel will appear more glossy in person, than it does in the photos.

Description - The bad news first - there is minor erosion at the root tips, minor damage/smoothing of the blade tip and very minor damage/smoothing of the blade edges.  Also, the left side of the root was broken off and was reattached.  Now the good news - the condition is actually very good compared to other similar teeth, especially this color.  Speaking of color, it's amazing, with a deep red/rust on the front, mixed with beige at the tip and blue/gray near the root.  On the back of the tooth, there is a dramatic change of color near the tip, from pumpkin orange to beige.
