Lovely Inuit Carved Stone Seal squirrel with traditional costumes representing all

with traditional costumes representing all of the states of the Soviet Union at the time

and clearly much valued to warrant the reparation

though they've become so precious they're pretty hard to come by

Lovely Inuit Carved Stone Seal squirrel with traditional costumes representing allA very satisfying small Inuit carved soapstone seal, exactly right and not a thing more. I just love the long triangular form of it, tapering gracefully to the tail, and then the charmer of a face poking up at the other end. Very sweet and also quite elegant. 4 1 8 x 1 3 8 t x 1 d and in good condition. No signature or numbers on the underside as far as I can see.
