Although often billed as ivory or bone, both sets are synthetic. Frisch verified that all of these grips were made by Maurice D. Scarlac of a material he developed called Catalin. Wayne reportedly liked them so much that he took them home and personally "tea-stained" them to a yellow color such as the patina often seen on ivory and bone grips.
Assuming you are asking about the original rifle and pistol that john Wayne carried in his 1st starring role in "Stagecoach" you will find them on display at the Oklahoma Cowboy Hall of Fame museum (see related link below)

Wayne had many interests apart from his film making career. He loved to hunt and fish. He had an impressive collection of antique guns and Kachina dolls. He was well-read and probably more complex than most people realize.
The cannon was developed before the pistol. Cannons emerged in the late 14th century as large artillery pieces, while the earliest hand-held firearms resembling pistols appeared in the early 16th century. The evolution of gunpowder weaponry progressed from large cannons to smaller, portable firearms, leading to the invention of the pistol. Thus, cannons laid the groundwork for the development of smaller guns like pistols.
Actually there is information on this very question in a recent American Rifleman article. The grips were made of Calalin, I believe it is Bakelite. The article says that Wayne liked them so much he actually tea stained them himself to replicate old ivory. Although he did use other Colts from Stembridge, the supplier of movie firearms, and at least one had those type of grips, in most movies he used his own Colt with the Catalin yellow grips. He also had finger grooves in the left grip. The interesting thing about the gun is that it was a combination of several Colts. Originally a Bisley, it had been altered by adding a regular SAA grip and the triggerguard had been enlarged, probably to better fit the Duke's large finger and make it easier to twirl. And actually it is not a .45 as thought, but a .44-40. He gifted this gun and his holster and belt to an employee and it is now in a private collection. It really is an interesting look when you see a good picture of it. I would like to build one to go with my own Duke gun rig. I suspect the Duke's own Colt would be worth 6 figures.
They have been made.
The 132 came with plastic or wood grips. Some of the plastic grips had Checkering, however I do not believe the wood grips ever had checkering.
