David, do you mean the last and bigger disc of the handle? It is the original, made of ivory.

Yes, sorry Flavio, I had forgotten that the disc was there originally ....I should have re-read the posting. Although in your pictures it looks whiter and 'cleaner' than the rest of the ivory used in the handle. Or is it caused by the lighting at the time of the photograph.
