My newest work, a 6 1/4 in long x 6 in. wide x 6in. tall baleen basket. This piece has a hand carved finial featuring an Aleut hunter made of ivory and bone while his baidarka is all baleen perched atop an ivory disc. His hunting hat is baleen layered with walrus ivory and whale bone. The harpoon is baleen and ivory with sinew.
The white stitching is more rare white baleen from an older female whale.
