Description

This is a Gambell, Alaska hunter in traditional hunting outfit, made of all white cotton cloth as outer garment with the inside a young reindeer skin. The pants are made of seal skin and hunting mukluk boots made of seal skin and the soles are made of shaved oogruk skin (big bearded seal), whose hair is shaved to use as a sole for shoes.

To shave the hair off we use the ashes of the burnt wood and scrape it with a piece of sharp edge stone.

2" x 1.5"

Designed by Alaska Native artist Idele Aningayou-Desdier of Gambell, Alaska.
