8" Sword Fighting Narwhal Pits (Pitseolak) QimirpikInuit art: Narwhal Inuit Artist: Pitseolak (Pits) Qimirpik Size: 6" tall (plus 2" Tusk), 2. 5" wide Community: Kimmirut, NU Stone: Serpentine id: caps 836021766 ***Museum quality piece*** When you encounter a Pits Qimirpik narwhal, you enter the fantastical domain of one of the world's most fascinating and unusual looking animals. The Narwhal tusk is actually a protruding canine tooth. It can grow up to 10 feet long. Pits's narwhal is "standing"

This particular white bear has its nose pointed toward the sky as if it is scenting the wind

Provenance: This storied piece is a set of two whalebone pieces recently carved from by Alivaktuk

A walrus is a large bulky animal with considerable girth but Anavilok’s Walrus is fluid and playful

The artist definitely put his heart and soul into this piece

Size: 10" across

Is it even possible to have too many “vignettes” in your collection
