: My curiosity is piqued. My father spent a year in Alaska and has some beautiful Inuit carvings. I know things can be pricey, but how expensive are we talking here? Hundreds? Thousands? You've obviously been communicating with Eric Schweig. Did he give you any insight into the love scene between Alice and Uncas? Was it ever filmed?

Carol,
$2500............ They are very large, intricate, and traditional. Each takes weeks to complete and will be made per request. Hey! I'll bet many of you would love to know that Eric Schweig was busily hand carving an Inuit creation JUST FOR YOU!!!
What type of carvings does your father have? Wood? Bone? You've piqued MY curiosity!
We didn't discuss the "love scene". Maybe next time we'll ask. (I'm sorry for neglecting my duty on that matter!) Eric was very, very nice and is excited about these carvings.
