How can I identify an Inuit carving?
1 Answer
Inuit carvings and sculptures have an igloo sticker, which means the piece has been registered by the Canadian government. If your piece does not have this igloo sticker, be sure you are buying from a reputable source. You can also shop expertly vetted Inuit art and carvings from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
