Pair of Inuit Caribou Antler Bone Dolls, Vintage man with book 6 1/8" t x 4The existence of these sort of Inuit dolls makes me happy of course every culture needs dolls, and of course they should be constructed of materials at hand, in this case Caribou antler, with sinew knotted at the joints. A close kinship between them and carved and jointed wooden dolls otherwise, as of course dolls should be able to move!
