A very nice sculpture of two ivory narwhals carved out of one tusk. The dimensions are 2.25" x 1.5" x 10" ( dimensions with the narwhals tusk) . The carving originates from Pangnirtung but I do not know who the carver is.

This is a large kayak with hunter and seal, all in ivory. The kayak is mounted on stone base and has whalebone harpoons on the back. The dimensions of the carving without the base is 12"x 1.5" x 2.5". With the base the dimensions are: 12" x 2.5" x 3.5". The carving has an authenticity sticker underneath, but I can not make out who the carver is. I do know that it originally came from Pangnirtung . A nice older piece.
