African hardwood with a soft pink glow, not from tusks but trees.
Pink Ivory is a pale pink, close to mauve.
It can be described as pale, delicate, faded and pastel.

Pink ivory, also called red ivory, purple ivory, unnini or umgoloti, is an African hardwood used to make a variety of products. The pink ivory tree grows predominantly in Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Northern Botswana and South Africa. The tree is protected and sustainably maintained in South Africa, only felled by very limited permit. The wood is extremely hard, with a density of 990 g/dm3.
Read on WikipediaIvory is a hard, white material from the tusks and teeth of animals, that consists mainly of dentin, one of the physical structures of teeth and tusks. The chemical structure of the teeth and tusks of mammals is the same, regardless of the species of origin, but ivory contains structures of mineralized collagen. The trade in certain tusks and teeth other than elephant is well established and widespread; therefore, "ivory" can correctly be used to describe any mammalian teeth or tusks of commercial interest which are large enough to be carved or scrimshawed.
