Lot #41: Vintage Authentic Inuit Stone Duck Carving by Silatik Meeko – Belcher Islands Original Tag

Bid on a beautiful piece of authentic Canadian Indigenous art. This stylized Metiq (Eider Duck) carving is hand-crafted from dark argillite stone by recognized Inuit artist Silatik Meeko. Hailing from the Belcher Islands (Sanikiluaq, Nunavut), this piece features the beautifully smooth, minimalist aesthetic the region's bird carvings are celebrated for. Crucially, this piece retains its original government/co-op provenance tag, a highly sought-after detail for serious collectors. There is a small chip on the tip of the tail (clearly shown in the final close-up photo). It does not impact the stability or structural integrity of the piece, and the duck still displays beautifully. Pickup category timeslot {A}
