Offered with no reserve is this extra large, wide & heavy Lower Anterior of very rare Blue colour.
SIZE: 5, 58'' x 3, 96'' wide.
WEIGHT: 260 grams.
SERRATIONSThis massive upper has very deep & sharp 100% full serrations, in one part (1.5 cm) becoming shallow due to feeding wear. Surprising survival of serrations immedeately near the root where they bend slightly back towards the root - in most megs those are missing. And this bend is a clear indic...ation of an earlier type of megs (a couple of million years:)) - in it's own right. In professional terms - No damage to the base of the blade edges - a trait only seen in the best teeth. Tip is excellent.
ROOTMassive root is all natural in near 100% survival order (very rare for Indo teeth). Excellent detail and form, original texture, uniform brown colour. Smoothly transits to bourlette over the characteristic hump. Solid, dense & stable. No resto or repair, 100% original.
BOURLETTEBourlette is original in excellent condition of it's 95% survival surface. Real rarity: goes all the way to the edges' extremes both sides (becoming really tiny). It is gold brown in colour with black veins. Smoothly goes to root via a charecteristic hump.
BLADE ENAMELNo enamel peeling. Two stable hairlines to the side bottom visible on the lingual side with no effect to stability. On the lingual side minor repair inset (10 mm) clearly visible on pix.
BLADE COLOURWhat makes this one outstanding is it's rare blue colour with flames of ice fire. At a certain angle you see silver shades - absolutely unusual play of natural colours.
FEATURES & ANOMALIESDeep double wrinkles on both sides giving you winks:)).
OVERALL CONDITIONVery good in our opinion. Symmetrical crown. Very stable.
