Seven small carved pieces: an ivory pendant scrimshawed with a caribou and mountain scene, signed L. Nayokpuk, SHH, AK on the reverse; a husky-image brooch with an indistinct signature; a carved leaf or feather pin; a standing dog figure with a small gold-tone fitting on its back; and three drilled beads. The pendant has a brown outer band, surface scratches and small edge irregularities. Several beads have conspicuous cracks and chipped areas around their holes, including one dark fracture line. The dog fitting appears incomplete, and the pins show hardware wear. The largest pendant measures approximately 2.25 by 1.5 inches.
