Description: This listing is for a Circa 1970s Seal Eskimo or Inuit Soapstone carving, handmade, polished and finished. Colors on this sculpture are green with a beautiful finish and nuances. Soapstone is a type of metamorphic rock, largely composed of the mineral talc, and thus is rich in magnesium The sculpture is finished with bee wax and natural oil, polished by hand. This is an interesting and exquisite gift for anybody, either house-warming, birthday or a special anniversary. Inuit people often carved animals around them to express their culture and the natural beauty of the Arctic. Inuit Art Sculpture is descended from the ancient craft of carving, honed from generations on the land when the Inuit carved tools, weapons and even toys for everyday life. Traditional Inuit religious practices include shamanism, in which spiritual healers mediate with spirits; some say that animal carvings were used by shamans in their practices to help fellow hunters in their success in catching live specimens. If the hunters asked for helping catching whales, shamans used whale sculptures, if they wanted seals, shamans will use seal sculptures. The measurements of this carving are approximately 3.5” length by 1.25”w by 3.0”h. History: For centuries, Inuit have been carving utilitarian stone cook pots and oil lamps and decorating their tools of wood, stone, bone, and ivory with artistic designs. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, they began creating sculpture as a source of income. These early commercial carvings were sold or traded to European and American whalers, who began frequenting the arctic regions at that time. The early works were, usually, small carvings from walrus ivory, representing local animals and Inuit themselves, going about everyday life. Seals, caribou, polar bears, birds, and other animals important to Inuit’s survival were often represented. As well, they carved small ivory genre scenes of hunting from kayaks, driving dog teams, or flensing seals. Appropriately, these small items are usually referred to as “trade sculptures.” Inuit carving as we know it today dates from the late 1940s and early 1950s, thanks to the enthusiasm of a young artist from Ontario, James Huston, and the Canadian Handicraft Guild’s “Eskimo Project.” The Project was designed to encourage the development of handicrafts as an additional source of income in Inuit communities. With the cooperation of The Hudson’s Bay Company and some financial support from the Canadian government, the Project encouraged the development of a number of art-related handicrafts in several Arctic communities. The small stone and ivory carvings initially produced proved to be extremely popular when offered for sale in Montreal in the early 1950s. Stone and bone were more frequently carved, as these materials were more readily available than walrus ivory. Through the 1950s and 1960s, Inuit carving became recognized internationally as a major and important art form. Currently, there are carvers in many Inuit communities across the Arctic. They carve in distinctive, forward-looking styles and combine traditional stone, bone, and ivory materials with a wide range of modern materials as well as precious metals. Materials: Stone Carving is carried out in most Arctic communities and many different kinds of stone are used. Soapstone, also called “steatite”, is composed of the soft mineral talc, which is one of the softest minerals known. Contrary to popular belief, most Inuit carvings are not in soapstone but in harder stone such as chrysotile, olivine, chlorite, serpentine, or peridotite (Swinton 1987). Even granite and quartz are used occasionally. Finding a continuing source of good carving stone has been a long-standing problem for many Arctic communities. The problem has become accentuated in the last decade or so. In some cases, communities have turned to imported stone. Some carvers have even begun using marble, often coloured black with shoe polish. General Statement: I have been a buyer on Ebay for a number of years. Some of the auction items that I purchased over the years, I really needed, and many other winning auction items (like 100 pairs of chopsticks – REALLY) after some embarrassment and family criticism, have made for a good story. It is my sincere goal to never embarrass any buyer, and to attempt to make every buyer who purchases one of my listed auction items more than satisfied. All of the auction items (whether pre-owned or brand new) come from a clean, pet-free, smoke-free, and mold-free home. I will always try and address any criticism or complaint in a prompt and thorough manner. I have procrastinated listing items on Ebay long enough and now it is time to say goodbye to some of my family’s belongings. Happy Bidding!!!
