Two carved whalebone figures of an Inuit hunter (part a) and a dog (part b). The hunter is in a standing position with his right arm raised.

The lining of the hunter's hood is made from black rubber, and he has dark inserts in his eyes. He has a hole in the bottom of one foot, suggesting he is missing a base.
