Description :
Small-scale antique dugout canoe carved by a Salish Sea tribal artisan - likely Makah from the very tip of the Olympic Peninsula or Haida from British Columbia given the shape of the bow and lines. The piece is carved from solid wood and is hand-painted with the image of an eagle and tribal symbols. This was probably made to aid in story-telling and not considered a toy. The flat, stepped stern along with the wolf-like head of the bow is characteristic of Salish tribes - particularly those who hunted whales such as the Makah or Haida. Painted embellishment patterns appear on each side of the canoe and its top edges. Condition is very good with some water marks throughout. Measures 4.25" H x 18.5" W x 2" D. When purchased 30 years ago, it was said to be circa 1940s. You can see a very similar one that is currently for sale here:1st Dibs
