Argillite Replicas

These reproduction pieces are moulded from casts of original argillite Haida carvings. Argillite is a soft slate found only on Haida Gwaii, (the Queen Charlotte Islands) and was first quarried in the 1820's on Slatechuck Mountain. When quarrying began, the sea otter trade, which supported many of the people of Haida Gwaii, was in decline. The Haida turned to carving instead, fashioning argillite into objects which quickly became prized collectibles around the world. The collection is made of a solid composite designed to simulate argillite.
