This striking work, carved from a dark stone of the soapstone or granite type, tenderly embodies the fundamental values of Inuit culture: family, protection and harmony with animals.
 ✨ Main features:

 
 👩‍👧‍🦺 Family scene : A human figure, probably an Inuit woman, is depicted sitting or kneeling, holding a child to her chest. Beside her rests an animal, possibly a dog or a lamb, a symbol of loyalty or sustenance.
 
 🪨 Material : Finely carved dark stone with detailed textures on the clothing, hair, and facial features. The matte finish and natural veining of the stone add depth and authenticity.
 
 🧵 Handcrafted details : The folds of the garment, facial expressions, and posture convey a palpable emotion. Each element appears carefully crafted, revealing traditional Inuit skill.
 
 🐾 Symbolism : The child and the animal evoke transmission, protection and the sacred link between humans and nature in Nordic communities.

 This piece is much more than a sculpture: it is a tribute to the resilience and gentleness of everyday Inuit life. It would be perfectly suited to an Indigenous art collection, a cultural showcase, or as a centerpiece in a Northern-inspired setting.
