Walking Polar Bear

Walking Polar Bear. Signed Tim Aiowa (unidentified?); possibly (Yup'ik), from  Gambell, St. Lawrence Island, Alaska

This carving is really lovely, but it has a very fine crack running though it from the way the material dried out. It is slightly visible in person and in our view does not retract from enjoyment of the piece.

2.5" long; 1.75" tall

Walrus Tusk Ivory, Baleen
