Lovely Inuit Carved Stone Seal woman in lace in a nice black stained

in a nice black stained solid wood frame wired on the back for hanging

which are covered with clear plastic

My favorite stapled pieces are those that wear the staples prominently on the exterior rather than the underside

mounted to chipboard backs

but I love them from a design play standpoint--so many possibilities

Lovely Inuit Carved Stone Seal woman in lace in a nice black stainedA 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.
