The finish of the stone, the detail, and to overall composition make this a masterpiece carving. I rarely find carvings from Pangirtung. It is a unique piece that tells the story of traditional Inuit life.

I was taken away by the finesse of this piece. The darkish emerald green stone radiates the entire room.
