Sea to Sky Platter, Small
The Sea to Sky Collection of nesting platters is a collaboration between Corrine Hunt and Boma Manufacturing. Each piece expresses an element of air, sea or land along with an animal familiar to that element. This small platter, "Peace in the Family" expresses the land theme with a wolf. Corrine likens her work to poetry, where a few simple lines can evoke a rich sense of place. Varying depths of relief add a three dimensional look. The resulting piece is modern, yet evocative of Corrine's First Nation heritage. 10 x 5¾ inches. Recycled glass. Made in Canada.

Wolf
The wolf features strongly in both Indian and Inuit lore as a successful hunter. Once the object of fear among the white settlers and shot by bounty hunters, the wolf is becoming better understood and more appreciated, both in Canada and Alaska, and is depicted in art throughout the north. In Indian designs, the wolf is identified by an elongated snout with flaring nostrils, large teeth and ears, and a curled tail.

Care
The Sea to Sky Platters are food safe, easy to maintain and durable. Hand wash with hot soapy water. Do not submerge for any length of time. Do not clean with abrasives or in automatic dishwashers. As each piece is handmade, surface imperfections and color variations occur, adding uniqueness.
