222. Swityk Tundra Raven Pair

Five inch ceramic totems, made by Swityk. Advertised as bookends, but probably just two separate items. One has cream coloured finish like similar Swityk designs (See 161, 160). Second version has brilliant white finish, possibly retouched.

Cast from resin with white painted finish, mass market tourist items.

Both show stylised Raven character bearing the salmon to human kind.
