Description
A striking Canadian decorative sculpture depicting a bundled hunter seated in a long kayak with a raised harpoon and seal or game float positioned behind. The streamlined kayak form is finished in a dark grey stone-like material, with sculpted facial details, paddle decoration across the deck, and a contrasting light-coloured removable harpoon.
The underside is hand-marked “© Thory Canada”, identifying the piece as Canadian-made. Measuring approximately 11 inches long, this compact sculpture has an appealing mid-century/vintage Canadian Arctic-art aesthetic and displays well from multiple angles.
