An extremely scarce late 19th or early 20th century utilitarian pair of handcrafted infant-sized kamguq, or knee-high muklucks, made from seal hide, each accented with a lighter shade of piping around the top of the foot, cross-straps, and trim around the calf. Exterior mukluck measures approximately 4" long x 1.75" wide x 4.5" tall; inside foot length measures 3.5" which is the equivalent of a 3-6 month, or size 1.
