This hand-carved stone sculpture is by Inuit artist Shorty Killiktee from Kimmirut (Nunavut, Canada). The work depicts a stylized owl, carved from serpentine stone with natural grain. The simplified forms, serene pose, and delicate lines are characteristic of Killiktee's work.

The underside features an engraved signature and an original Canadian "Eskimo Art" label, confirming its authenticity. A striking collector's item of traditional Inuit art.
