variety of wearable art. Inuit sculptures descend from
the ancient art of carving. They are made of materials
generically referred to as soapstone, but differ according to
mineral content and stone found in various regions of the
Arctic. Each soapstone carving is unique as it ranges in colour,

style based on
available materials and local artistic influence. Inuit art is
uniquely Canadian and enjoys an excellent reputation world wide.
