Large THUNDERBIRD - by Kwakiutl Indigenous artist Walawidi, Tom D. Hunt

This piece is as good as it gets. The carving on it is just spectacular, perfection! The carvings lines are deep and I don't even know what to say about it - it's just a magical piece and the expression is majestic, elegant and VERY powerful. I will let the images speek for themselves....

The Thunderbird mask is huge. It's prepared for wall hanging, but looks fabulous as a centrepiece in every room. 

Measurements: 24" x 21" x 9" (61 x 53 x 23 cm)
