In the past, they were carved using bits of animal parts (whale bone, antlers)
Sometimes human hair was used,
Using chants and magic, the Tupilak were brought to life and sent to the bottom of the ocean to avenge or exact justice.
Tupilaks are no longer sent as curses.

The majority of Tupilaks are fantasy creatures.
It is rare to see a Tupilak carved in a Realistic style like SEALED WITH A KISS.

The detailed carving is inspirational.
The rope, the facial features, the seal.
If you didn't know this was a small carving, you would not be wrong in thinking it was at least a foot tall.
This enchanting carving could bring you joy every day.
