    Here's my latest piece of Inuit stone carving. And it's also my latest case of being unable to decipher syllabics. I'm hoping you experts can help me out again!

    (Not sure which way to orient it either...)

    Waddingtons has a good database for value (fair market) as well.

    Very hard to make out...kind of sloppy but it hails from Naujaat (Repulse Bay). Nice enough piece but no significant value

    Thanks Komokwa and Mark London for your expertise and your willingness to share it! Truly appreciated.

    And thanks for the tip Laura.

    Nakurmiik!

    (I think that's 'thank you' in Inuktitut)

    I like your title “another”. I just acquired part of a lifetime collection of Inuit stones. I have a feeling I’ll be using a title similar often. Like “another, nother, nother, nother....”
