Michelle Stoney Gitxsan Hand Zip-Around Wallet
SKU 2278
$44.00 CAD
Designed by Gitxsan artist Michelle Stoney.
The hand was an idea from local high school teachers. They had asked me to create a design to honour the local survivors. In the palm of the hand is Stigyoden , our local mountain in the Gitxsan Nation in Northern British Columbia. Surrounding the mountain are flowers, which in our language we call majagalee , which also means children. And on the top, representing the fingers are the feathers, which honour the children who never made it home
Wallets are 12.5cm x 21cm; it is zipper-closed, with 8 card slots, 5 compartments and 1 zipped pocket inside. They come with a hardcover gift box stamped with the artist's signature and the name of the art.
