These photos highlight some of the different kinds of Northwest
coast Indian art that we offer. All masks are carved out of
western red cedar, the piece is either knife finished and
sanded to a fine finish. Depending on the piece, it can be
painted in our traditional colors of black, red, green, yellow,
grey, brown, or blue. Other products used to compliment a
piece could be red cedar bark rope, bundles of cedar bark,
copper over-lay, abalone in-lay, horse hair, inlaid operculum
shell, rabbit fur, or feathers (excluding Eagle feathers).
