    Looks to me that "Gorilla' tm glue was used on those ivories  this glue prodeces that 'foamy" stuff….Not the best choice….isaac



  That was my first thought as well, but I've never used Gorilla glue.  Just heard about it from others. 


  The repair was done 8-10 years ago, according to the owner.  But it was supposedly just this year that the glue expanded and caused the ivory to be elevated like that.  I can't see that happening, but I certainly claim no expertise here.
