About the Item

This exquisite Inuit carved stone sculpture features a beautifully detailed seal, masterfully crafted from a solid piece of stone. The piece is mounted on a sleek black marble pedestal display base, enhancing its elegance and offering a striking contrast to the natural tones of the stone. The artist's signature, along with the date and an inscription in Inuktitut syllabics, are carefully etched into the base, adding a personal touch that connects the piece to its cultural roots. This work not only showcases the skilled craftsmanship of Inuit artisans but also serves as a powerful symbol of the deep connection between the people of the Arctic and the animals they revere. With its authentic and meaningful design, this sculpture invites the viewer to reflect on the rich traditions and enduring legacy of Inuit art. sculpture on display base: 11.88"W x 6.75"D x 7.75"H sculpture alone: 8"W x 2"D x 6"H
