A miniature walrus ivory sled dog team on a polished baleen base, the pale carvings standing out against the dark, gently curved support. Five dogs lead the sled in a narrow line, linked by a baleen harness. Behind them, a musher with a whisker-accented leather collar holds the sled, which has a leather-covered seat. A compact and engaging depiction of northern travel. Approximately 6.75" x 1.25" x 2" tall.
