    A Henry Hunt Kwakiutl Northwest Coast Carved Wood Pugwus Beaver? Mask Signed
    For your consideration is this wonderful carved mask by renowned master carver Henry Hunt. There is an detailed entry in Wikipedia on his life which you can read on your own. This is from the first paragraph:
    Henry Hunt
    (16 October 1923 – 13 March 1985) was a First Nations woodcarver and artist from the Kwakwaka'wakw (formerly "Kwakiutl") people of coastal British Columbia.[1] He carved a number of totem poles which are on public display in Canada and internationally.
    From prior auction records on, I believe this is a mask of a Pugwus ("man of the sea") although it may possibly be a beaver.
    It is in overall excellent preowned condition with no significant issues to note. There are a few minor marks/scuffs which have been pictured.
    Mask measures about 7-1/8” tall x 6” wide x 5” deep. It is signed as shown.
    It will weigh about 3lbs packed safely. A handling fee for full insurance and signature delivery has been added. Local pickup near Boston can be arranged. Thank you!
