Just has a carving number, but the feet and rock type are very similar to Moses (Mosusie) Echalook's work

by Seal on a Rock September 6th 2023, 9:50 pm

Lovely! Where do you find them all?

by **NaomiM** September 6th 2023, 10:38 pm

Most of them are off eBay. A few found in charity shops and antiques fairs

Stone might be Nuummit, just north of Nuuk, Greenland

Bird. Stone is from Sanikiluaq. Possibly by Johnassie Mannuk, Mina Mannuk or Annie Ippak

This is beautiful - love the facial expression too! Do you know who it's by?

Its very similar to the Samwillie Quarak piece above but unfortunately its not signed and i havent been able to track down the carving number

by **NaomiM** December 31st 2023, 5:15 pm

Via ebay. Sadly arrived broken so had to return it

How infuriating!

by **NaomiM** January 1st 2024, 11:31 am

It was in a box barely bigger than the piece itself. Some people think that because its stone it’s hard, but its just as brittle as pottery

by Seal on a Rock January 1st 2024, 5:01 pm

Oh I hate it when people do that - why bother sending stuff if you're not going to pack it properly?!!!

Came with green felt stuck to the base. Removed it to find a partial signature, carving number and label. Markoshie?
The Inuit Art group suggested Markusie Anuakak who was carving in Povunituk (Povungnituk); he died in Akulivik. Unfortunately I haven't found his work online.
