Sea to Sky Platter, Medium
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 medium platter, "Freedom in Yourself" expresses the air theme with an eagle. 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. 12½ x 6½ inches. Recycled glass. Made in Canada.

Eagle
The Eagle is one of the most powerful and important symbols in Pacific Northwest Indian art and life. Eagle down, a symbol of peace and friendship, was sprinkled before guests in welcome dances and on other ceremonial occasions; eagle feathers were used in many rituals and worn on masks, headdresses and dance aprons.

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.
