From what I see in the link, that piece would be legal to buy/sell in the U.K. and, most likely, in the U.S. as well if there is documented proof of it's age and authenticity.

Very interesting, extremely rare & the'll have no problems getting a good price for it.

The object is certainly illicit. The ivory is probably OK.

but ruled unconstitutional [partly]

Actually, you're closer than you thought. My source:

Anyone looking for a piece of ivory? - AzBilliards.com

By the way, if anybody reads the comments on the above thread, "squirt" is a term used in pool to describe cue ball deflection when English is applied..the amount the cue ball moves off a straight line after the hit.
