Collection: Sperm Whale Teeth - Australian Buyers Only

“On the evening 21^st November 1978, the Cheynes II, Cheynes III and Cheynes IV berthed at the Albany Town Jetty after their last whale hunt.  The last shore based whaling station in Australia closed and 178 years of whaling in Albany waters came to an end.”

The end of an era for Albany, as described by Albany’s Historic Whaling Station, Discovery Bay.

The genuine Sperm Whale teeth for sale in this site are sourced from an old local ex whaler who asked me to help sell his collection.  Most teeth have sold but there are a few still available. The beautiful scrimshaw on the collection image is part of my own personal collection.
