This is a striking velvety black finish loon. It caught my eye right away. This piece is gorgeous because of the smooth curves, the subtle lines, and most of all, the gorgeous deep black Argelite stone. The etchings for the feathers also add a certain intensity to the piece.  

Loons are mates for life, that's why they are great as wedding gifts.

This loon is signed by the artist, also comes with igloo tag.
