A Qulliq is an Inuit lamp/stove which burns seal oil for fuel.
The stone is carved into a "vessel" which holds the fuel which is traditionally seal oil.
A Qullik was a source of light and heat for Inuit people.
Home Cooking is unique and traditional.
Inside the igloo, the Inuit would use this oil stove for cooking and for warmth.
Seal oil is extracted from seal blubber (fat).
Imagine having this beautiful "stove" as a conversation piece in your collection.
