Item Details

Description

Title: â€œCaribou”

Artist: Inuit Artist (Unidentified), Cape Dorset/Kinngait, Canada

Date Period: circa 1985-199

Materials: Stone and Antler

Dimensions: 5.75”h x 8w” x 3”d

Description: Has no discernible signature, but was created by a carver of great sensitivity and skill. The movement is dynamic and realistic, carefully executed, and the finish of both the stone and antler components is soft, smooth, and well-polished. The stone itself appears similar to the variegated green stone typically found and used by artists of the CapeDorset/Kinngait region. Remnants of hand tool markings on the bottoms of the hooves indicate that it was carved â€œthe old way” (ie. with rasps, files, sand-paper, etc.) and thus date the piece to circa 1990 or earlier. Great attention to detail was given to the face, eyes, ears, hooves, and other componentsâ€“a high level of definition on an 8” carving. Just a beautiful piece!
