ivory of fate

[Wedger]

Does anyone by any chance know what "ivory of fate" means?

IF you mean 'irony of fate', here's a definition:

Irony of fate
The expression "irony of fate" stems from the notion that the gods (or the Fates) are amusing themselves by toying with the minds of mortals, with deliberate ironic intent. For example:

Ludwig van Beethoven's loss of hearing;
The rain that sets in immediately after one finishes watering one's garden, following many days of putting off watering in anticipation of rain.
Examples of ironic incidents might involve the eviction of a landlord from his home, or the death of an atheist killed by a falling cross. In the first case, an incongruity exists between what happens (the person is evicted) and what is expected (the person normally evicts others); in the second case, a strong contrast emerges between the person's beliefs and his apparent fate.

Situations resembling poetic justice, but lacking the aspect of justice, may also be ascribed to the irony of fate.

Thecooler is probably right to imply that you may have mis-heard the phrase. ..... if not.... .. a pianist breaking a finger on a stuck piano key.
