The V&A's collection of ivory carvings (c. 400-1200) is one of the most important in the world.

Major masterpieces from every era of the period include the Symmachi Panel from Late Antiquity; the front cover of the Lorsch Gospels from the Carolingian era; the Ottonian Basilewsky Situla; the Veroli Casket from tenth-century Byzantium; the St Nicholas Crozier; the enigmatic whalebone carving of the Adoration of the Magi from the Romanesque twelfth century; and, numerous others of the first importance and beauty.
