Thank You! Indeed they take very good care of each other and both know they are very Treasured - TiGGy sends LuV to Wilbur!
DeleteWhat a beautifully carved doll. They are very rare in the States due to the lack of snow, so you caught this one just right!
ReplyDeleteLOL, indeed they are rare, and she was clearly very lovingly carved. Thank You for Enjoying Tiggs Inuit Treasure - TiGGy sends LuV!

DeleteHi Tiggy! More snow!! We've just had one of the most snowless winters in decades!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful Inuit doll! It's a good job she's well wrapped up, you wouldn't want her to catch cold! Do you know how old the doll is?
Kind regards, Brian.

DeleteI have been researching her, and do know she is old and her Beaver Tail Parka does locate her to Baffin Island, but so far I have not seen in any book, nor museum such an amazing carver - Still hoping I will learn more about her! TiGGy sends LuV :)
I just love Tiggy little boots!
ReplyDeleteThank You Brini - TiGGy is Very ProudMosT of Her STomPie BooTs and Delighted you Love them Too! ~ TiGGy sends LuV :)
DeleteTiGGy, do you know if your Northern friend is made of soapstone? Loved the carved locks.
ReplyDeleteYes Indeed AnonyPeeP - Our Inuit friend Is carved from Soapstone, and the exquisite detail on her face and that thick carved braid in the back of her head is Truly a Marvel - Thank You for EnJoying Her! ~ TiGGy sends LuV!
DeleteThis Inuit doll is a real treasure, what a beautiful art work!
ReplyDeleteThank you so Very Much Nymphea, I heartily agree and really hope to learn more about her. I have bought books on Inuit dolls and have been searching museum images to learn more as her carving is so very distinctive. So far I have learned alot about Inuit dolls, but not found her carver. From what I have learned so far, I do believe she may well have been carved by and for a loved one in their likeness, which was occasionally done, but not often sold, so she is truly a treasure - Thank you for Enjoying her ~ TiGGy is Thrilled you like her Inuit Friend and Sends LuV! :)
