ATLIN, B.C. — A man who helped return a 140\u002Dyear\u002Dold Tlingit robe to the British Columbia First Nation where it was created says it’s as if the regalia called…
Tlingit elder and master carver Wayne Carlick said his heart “probably exploded” when the robe’s close connection to his community was confirmed after he saw it online.
“It took a long time before I started seeing First Nation’s art, West Coast First Nation’s art, and so it took a long time to get to this point.” Carlick said he’s seen many similar items but this was the first one he’s come across with wolves, an animal common in Taku River Tlingit culture. The Taku River Tlingit said in a statement in December that the piece was originally expected to sell for an estimated $15,000 to $20,000 but came in at a staggering $38,000.Article contentThe First Nation’s spokesperson said in a statement Wednesday that they are overjoyed that a piece of their heritage is being returned.
