Mystery Artist 62 – Artist “Nixon”

The owner of an ornate bracelet with a nicely shaded black and white scrimshawed butterfly and flowers is looking for more information about the artist. It shows the date of 1977, and the last name of Nixon, though the preceeding initials are hard to distinguish. Around Danville Illinois is where her husband found it, they’d like to know if it’s bone, ivory, horn, etc.
The cabochon is approximately 1″ x 2″ (25.4mm x 50.8mm). Let us know in the comments if you can!

Bracelet face with black and white butterfly, the year 1977 and the artists name - some initials illegible but the name Nixon is clear.

Image edge with the slight brown stripe reminds me of the material "galalith".
