For small bits off non ivory check out Tagua Nuts. Aside from that perhaps Corian®.

I'm no math whiz (Bob would snort iced tea out his nose at THAT understatement) but does the following not, err, follow to anybody else?

". . .1/4 to 1/2 inch thick or if dealing with metric about one milimeter."

Yup, does not compute

1/4 inch almost 6mm to 1/2 inch almost 13mm. 3/8 inch is almost 1 centimeter..........(A.K.A. 10mm)

Yes, you can sand it, polish it, paint it, put paint in the mold so it is embedded in it....
