This is a beautiful rendition of a swimming seal by Louis Uttaq. The piece is elevated on an antler allowing the viewer to observe the seal as it speeds through the water like lightening. 

This perspective is rare since we usually see a seal solidly planted on the ground.

The details are exquisite; large round eyes, beautifully carved flippers and tail and the dark black and mossy green stone is cool and sleek.

This would be an extraordinary gift for a wedding, especially to someone who is new to Inuit art because this sculpture has such universal appeal.
