Snow Goggles

Snow goggles made with sterling silver, hand made it’s shows our culture. They used them in spring time to protect their eyes from the sun when they out hunting or when they going spend some time outside. In old days they were using caribou antler to make snow goggles. Now a days they don’t really use them because we use sun glasses now.

Inuksuk with Kayak
Inuksuk with kayak: made with sterling silver. I choose to make it because it’s shows our culture and that they still use it now, Inuksuk can tell you were to go hunting or tells you where you are going in other words (direction). You can make inuksuk all kinds of different ways. Kayak was the most important in old days. They used it for going hunting on water and for transportation. Kayak usually made out of seal skin and it’s water proof.
