Hand-carved ebony ancestral totem, with a sunburst-collared head atop a column of interlocking figures on a radiating round base — a traditional Great Lakes region motif representing family lineage. The style reflects a lineage of workshop carving passed from master to apprentice, with variations in headdress and posture signaling different regional schools.

Part of a collection bought directly from the carving artists during the original collector's travels — not mass-market inventory. Individual piece records like exact artist and precise origin weren't kept, so the region and material shown here are a general description, not a verified attribution. Pricing is banded to comparable current market listings for this type of piece, not an individual appraisal. Dimensions and weight are approximate.
