The Ivory Room at Bargello in Florence is a museum room dedicated to the collection of medieval ivories. It houses a wide selection of decorative objects carved from ivory, mainly from the 14th to 16th centuries. These pieces include crucifixes, diptych plaques, relic caskets, and other ornate objects. This collection testifies to the great skill of medieval sculptors in working with ivory, as well as their esteem for this precious material.
