A framed ceramic tile displays Sue Coccia's two-humpback-whale design, their bodies filled with intricate colorful animal and decorative motifs; the reverse is signed Sue Coccia. The tile measures approximately 7.5" x 7.5" overall. A pair of Philip Thornburg totem-design resin bookends has a dark faux-argillite finish. Six Bering Sea Originals coasters feature wildlife drawings by Siberian Yupik artist Florence Nupok Malewotkuk (1906-1971): two each showing a walrus, husky dog, and polar bear. Their presentation case includes information about the artist. A white mug reproduces a scene of dancers and drummers by Iñupiaq artist Robert Mayokok (1903-1983), with his name beneath the illustration; a green glass Bristol Bay Native Corporation mug carries a fish emblem. The remaining pieces include a copper-tone metal relief plaque showing a dog team, sled, and igloo, a ceramic moose-head pitcher, a braided puffin mat, and a seal figurine with a matching oval base in marbled brown and cream. A deck of scenic playing cards in a clear case shows Mt. McKinley against an autumn landscape.
