Antique Alaskan Eskimo Snuff Box

$575.00

Antique Alaskan Eskimo Snuff Box

A delightful and unusual piece dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. Carved from a walrus tusk and decorated to look like a fishing basket, the box has a carved seal on the wooden cover. The wooden panel on the bottom is inscribed “Simpson Coll”.

The box has been restored with conservatory adhesive; the loop is new as well. With few of these items on the market, this is a rare find.

3 1/4 in. high x 2 1/2 in. x 1 1/2 in.
