Have a look at this piece – so many characters in one piece, so detailed

Hand carved and inlaid with Abalone

Thunderbird and Killer Whale wall art, also showing the Salmon, the Eagle and the Raven by First Nations artist Nelson McCarty from the Thompson Nations.

This piece is so unique – and very detailed. Nelson used a beautiful clean bright piece of pine. Simply outstanding – I’ll let the images speak for themselves. He spent so many hours on this piece. It's signed with carved initials at the back, not carved at the back, made and prepared for wall hanging, hanger already attached. 

Measurements: 22 1/2" x 7" x 1" (57 x 18 x 2.5 cm)
