Artists of Sanikiluaq

Treat yourself to a piece of Canadian history with an original soapstone carving from the great Canadian North. All of our carvings come with the Igloo Tag  issued by the Government of Canada which certifies its authenticity. Please note that the generic term "soapstone" is commonly used, but this is a bit misleading. Soapstone, a soft talc steatite, is not used nearly as much as the harder serpentine, argillite, dolomite, quartz, and other types. All our carvings are of the harder variety of stone and not the talc type.


George Arlook Collection
This is the perfect opportunity to own a beautiful, one of a kind creation from one of the most famous and talented Inuit artists in Canadian art history. Born in Arviat, Nunavut, George began to teach himself how to carve at the age of nine and has been carving his beautiful works of art for over 40 years. His pieces have appeared in exhibtions all over the United States including New York, L.A., San Francisco, St. Louis, and Seattle. Internationally, George's abstract creations have appeared on numerous occasions throughout France, including Paris, Manheim Germany, Edegem Belgium and Sydney Australia to name a few.
