These three ivory and wood artifacts are beach finds by native people from native land on St. Lawrence Island. The ivory piece on the bottom is a harpoon foreshaft; the middle artifact is a wooden prong from a fish spear, or leister. The ivory artifact at the top appears to be a point for an arrow or small spear.

Due to prohibitions on shipping these pieces internationally, I must restrict their sale and delivery to U.S. buyers only.

From now through the end of 2009, I will be selling a collection of artifacts, antiquities, relics, and antiques assembled during the past 45 years. All items were legally acquired, are guaranteed to be authentic, and I offer a guaranteed full refund of the purchase price if returned in the same condition as sent within 3 weeks of the date of sale.

Items will be sent by appropriate class USPS mail, fully insured, with delivery confirmation. Postage charges are listed for delivery to buyers within the U.S. Postage fees for international buyers will be determined after the sale. Every attempt will be made to hold mailing costs to a minimum. I do offer combined shipping for multiple items purchased within 3 days, with additional postage costs limited to those covering the extra weight and insurance required.

This is from my 8th group of items being auctioned in 2008. I'll do my best to answer any questions and resolve any problems that may arise.

Thank you for looking at this auction, and I hope to do business with you this year.
