First Nations Wall Totem Bear / Frog / Wolf / Raven
Item Details
Description
**Originally Listed At $300**

Native American, First Nations / Canadian, British Columbia, Kwakwaka'wakw (Kwakiutl), ca. 20th century CE. Signed "W.S." on verso, with "B.C." and "Bear / Frog / Wolf / Raven." A fascinating wooden totem pole hand-carved with the stylized forms of a bear, a frog, a wolf head, and then the projecting neck and head of a raven at the bottom. As this totem lacks a flat base, it was likely intended to be displayed on the wall. Size: 1.4" W x 18" H (3.6 cm x 45.7 cm)

Provenance: private Alamo, California, USA collection, before 2000

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
