Beautiful - Really exceptional high quality piece

This EAGLE TOTEM / Sculpture is designed and hand carved by the Kwakiult Artist Alfred Robertson

Excellent craftsmanship really deep cuts - beautiful balance and expression. Alfred spent 3 days just on the sanding of this alone - It's incredibly detailed - the  bear is "carrying" a panel which represents a copper panel - it shows the eagle in the front. Alfred stained and polished this piece to accentuate the natural grain of the wood. It's signed at the bottom of the base.
