"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 - To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure what color category this tooth should be in.  There is definitely orange/amber at the tip.  And there is definitely a hint of blue in the upper blade.  There are both black and white markings.  On the front of the blade especially, the mix of blue and amber hues give the illusion of green - sort of.  Oh well.  Does it really matter?  Even with some surface damage/erosion effecting the root and smoothing the blade a bit, this is a great tooth.
