Eagle Head Antler Carving

A remarkable example of Cree artistry, this one-of-a-kind antler sculpture is hand-carved by David Namagoose of Waskaganish, Eeyou Istchee. Using the natural form of a shed antler, David has expertly sculpted a powerful eagle head, symbolizing strength, vision, and freedom. The interior of the antler features an intricately engraved scene of Canada geese in flight over a northern landscape, capturing a moment deeply connected to the wildlife and seasonal rhythms of the James Bay region. The contrast between the natural antler and the detailed carvings highlights both the beauty of the material and the artist's exceptional craftsmanship. Rich in cultural and natural symbolism, this piece celebrates the relationship between the land, its wildlife, and Cree traditions.
