Has anyone heard of an oriental netsuke is made ​​of some of asked rock or stone?

I recently bought an oriental netsuke is made ​​of some sought of rock or stone and calved two walruses on there belly on the underside of two holes and a behalf of all makers inlaid with what I suppose to be ivory or bone. Can anyone tell me where I can get more information about this? I tried to look on the internet, but without success. If anyone can help I would be grateful. Only sensible answers please

No photos to your question is impossible to answer. Looks like you have an Inuit carving, not a Japanese netsuke, be sure to go to the forum of "www.netsuke.org and ask your question along with ALL photos of your room.
