SPECTACULAR DANCING BEAR BY THE ACCLAIMED INUIT ARTIST MARK PAPIGATOK. THIS MASTERPIECE WAS ACQUIRED DIRECTLY FROM HIS HANDS IN INUIT COMMUNITY CAPE DORSET (KINGAIT, ARCTIC CANADA). THIS BEAUTIFUL CENTERPIECE IS NEW AND IS WORTH MORE THAN DOUBLE THE PRICE IN AN INUIT ART GALLERY - NO EXAGGERATION!
This stunning Inuit carving comes with an Igloo Tag (Certified of Authenticity).
This sculpture measures 5.5" tall, 2.5" wide.
The sculpture is made out of serpentine.
The carving is completely perfect. There are no inclinations or any other imperfections! The sculpture is signed by the inuit artist Mark Papigatok (from Cape Dorset, Nunavut)
Its gorgeous shiny color is really captures the eye with the marble finish it has to it.
This is what caught my eye when I saw this piece:
1) Mark Papigatok (very acclaimed artist)
2) The color is a beautiful shiny black
3) The look is very peaceful
The
proportions, the subject, and smooth polish and finish are
all without a doubt - perfect! It is polished extremely well which is
what gives it such a smooth texture.
The
carving techniques used was done with very close attention
to detail and care, as the curves and edges are extremely smooth and
crisp.
We buy directly from the artist and can offer you better deals. The sculpture itself speaks for itself. The detail, the movement, the polish and shine.
Our favorite sculpture. Extremely well carved, proportioned, detailed, shiny. Very peaceful and graceful. Outstanding work of art by a Master carver!
