In
a little dell behind the peddler's cottage is a carpet
of Canadian Dwarf Cornell, or Alaskan dogwood. Early
on summer mornings the rose-pink hue of dawn tints their
white, petal-like leaves to silver. Their purplish flower
centers, each with a dot of morning dew, sparkle like
precious garnets. With her metalworking magic, Alaskan
artist Judie Gumm has captured their allure in this
necklace and earring set of sterling silver with garnet
centers.

Raven
walked the beach in lonely solitude. He wished he could talk
to someone. He came upon a giant clamshell, blocking his path.
From inside the shell came little voices, crying, "Let
us out! Let us out!" With his strong beak, Raven pried
open the shell and let the first people out into the world.
Now his loneliness could be forgotten.
Over the years the people grew and changed. Finally they became
as we are today. However, Raven did not change. He still talks
to us, but, now that we have grown up, we have forgotten his
language.
"Emerging
Mankind" is a silver bracelet by Northwest artist Barry
Herem, depicting the clamshell creation myth. This piece is
one of many meticulous reproductions of Northwest art by a
variety of artists that are available from the Peddler's Pack.

Mankind bracelet $134.00 |

RAVEN STEALING THE SUN
When Raven let the first people out of the clamshell,
the world was dark and cold. We are cold,
cried First People. How shall we survive?
I
will bring you a sun to warm you, answered Raven.
So saying, he flew off into the sky.
Soon he reappeared, with a little sun in his beak. He
threw it into the sky over First People, and they rejoiced,
as it shed light and warmth upon them.
Danny Dennis created this sterling bracelet to commemorate
Ravens successful theft of the sun. Mr. Dennis
is a native Gitksan from the village of Kitwanga; he
is a member of the Tsimshian tribe.

RAVEN
AND THE BOX OF DAYLIGHT
A powerful chief decided the sun and moon belonged to
him, so he put them in boxes and kept them in his house.
The People then had to do their work by starlight.
Raven used his tricks to gain access to the house, and
when he saw the opportunity, he snatched the sun from
its box and flew out the smoke hole in the ceiling with
it. Until his flight through the smoke hole, Raven had
been white. The trip through the hole made him black,
as he is today.
The People rejoiced when Raven returned with the sun.
You, too, will rejoice as you wear these outstanding
earrings by Odin Lonning. Mr. Lonning is a Tlingit native
of Juneau, AK.
