Ivory grips for Colt 1860 open top (Pietta)

[colima]

This may be a FAQ, but I'm interested in adding a set of ivory (synthetic is OK) grips for my 1860 Pieta that just got back from Goons.
Any ideas on sources?

Also check on Ebay occasionally as used grips show up regularly although the plastic/ivory are less common!

Although not ivory, these are real elk antler grips I got from Chisel and Plane Workshop a few years back. I should update this pic as they are started to yellow real nice after a lot of use. They also have real ivory but it is always listed as POR so I take it they are very expensive. Trouble is I can't find their website anymore.

Thanks for the links! Was thinking about doing the same thing with my new Pietta Colt Model 1860.

Good afternoon,
I have a Goonerized 1860 Army made back in 1980 and imported by DART The manufacturer got traced down to an Italian shotgun maker named Ruschetti. I would dearly love to have a nice set of white grips for it but it would involve having them made as the grip frame is smaller than than a Uberti or Pietta. If you gentlemen ever run across such a thing, please drop me a note.
regards,
Painless

This company linked above requires you to send in a tracing of the grip.

Those grips look nice on your Rogers and Spenser. As you say they've aged very nicely!
