Inuit Mukluks

Art unknown - circa 2005 - seal skin, wool - Inuit Mukluks - Canada

Acquired from Curved Lake Gallery, Ontario.

These mukluks are classic in design and execution. The soles are humna-chewed seal skin which provides waterproofing to the seams. The chevron design on the boot face is traditional. The inner boot is made from heavy wool blanket reminiscent of the treaty blankets which were originally used in their construction.
