About the Item

A wonderful soapstone carving of a walrus by the indigenous Inuit People who inhabit parts of the arctic regions of Greenland, Canada, and Alaska. Signed ("E.Y.") and numbered/dated (1669?) on the underside. From a collection of Native and North American tribal art and artifacts. We are not sure of the exact age so are simply dating as the Mid-20th Century. Would be a great addition to any Native American or tribal art collection or eye-catching stand-alone work. Dimensions: 3" high, 9" wide, 3" deep.
