Instruments incorporating Brazilian rosewood, ivory, tortoiseshell, reptile skin, and other regulated materials may require careful assessment before they can be sold, exported, transported, or inherited.
Wildlife Law provides expert guidance to musicians, collectors, dealers, orchestras, and instrument specialists navigating the evolving regulatory landscape surrounding protected species and wildlife-derived materials.
