I love the lapis blue of the label

on Cathay")--which makes me wonder whether the original inspiration for the drawing was an image first painted on a teacup

Graceful, Gestural Whittled Form/Figure Mt. Moosilalauke souvenir a member of the SiouxJust a little thing, but I think it's so lovely, like a whittled abstraction of a long limbed modern dancer. I don't know anything of who made it or when, but I sure love the effect of the patch of bark left untouched, as if minimally clothing a figure who reaches out from center in every direction. 5 1 2" longest x 4" wide measured on the square. Very good condition.
