    Description

    For sale is a Northwest Coast wild woman rattle by renowned NWC master carver Henry Hunt  (1923-1985).
    Henry Hunt is the descendant of the famed ethnologist George Hunt and stepson of Mungo Martin.  Together they revived the Thunderbird Park in Victoria. B.C. which was a collection of NWC artifacts such as poles, grave markers and other ceremonial carvings.  When Mungo Martin died in 1962, Henry became the chief carver.  He passed his skill and techniques to his own sons, Tony, Richard, and Stanley Hunt.
    He and Tony Hunt, his eldest son, carved a memorial pole to Mungo Martin at Alert Bay, B.C., in 1970–71.
    This wild woman rattle is 12" L (& 13 1/2" on stand) X 6" W with horse hair and string on the handle.
    Rattles are percussive instruments used in shamanic & ceremonial contexts.
    The hand written note that accompanies the rattle states "Henry Kwakiutl Alert Bay B.C. Tsonqua Wild Woman 1978".
    I have been selling authentic Northwest Coast Art on ebay since 1999 so buy with confidence.
