It certainly looks real, but Ivorite or celluloid is more likely. The black Parker Brothers grip caps are molded black hard rubber. If it was truly ivory, it would have been hand carved, and the detail looks more like a molded surface. This is not to say it isn't original to the gun, but it is more likely a molded material.
It certainly looks nice.
