"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.

Slant Length - 1.76"

Description - In the photos, you may see faint hints of blue and pink, but in person, they are very difficult to see.  This is still a stunning tooth though, with it's light blade contrasting with the rust/gold/tan root.  The dark markings on the blade are also interesting, including the "eye" on the right side of the front blade.  In fact, there is another "eye" on the back of the blade - right side closer to the tip (beige eye with an orange pupil).  The back of the blade tip almost looks like a shark head (imagine the shark diving downward), even with some dark markings where the mouth would be.  Is my imagination going a bit wild?
