Bone/Antler Carving Question

When finishing up a carved item, I see that sometimes the lines are darker where designs have been cut into the item. What is this and how it it made. Is it some sort of ash and wax mixture?
Thanks for your help.

Does anyone have pictures of the Valsgarde 6 helmet in SCA combat?

What "goes with it"? Would "hidden armour" work?

Here is mine. I wear hidden armour but, sometimes a chain shirt. I do wear splinted 1/2 greaves sometime.
