Kunstkamera

These masks were all on display behind glass. There was so much to look at and little time so we concentrated on closely examining and handling the weavings.





Notice the tambourine type instrument with puffin beaks on it. Puffins shed their beaks each year so many beaks are found without hurting the puffins. Then other times.....

I really liked this bag.
The embroidery here is very small and uses sinew and bird intestines. These are sewn on seal gut or esophagus.

Horn carvings.


Spruce root hat with beads attached.
