Nuu-chah-nulth three figure totem pole from Ye Olde Curiosity Shop. This older pole is an excellent example of Nuu-chah-nulth carving. It features a wolf, bird, and human figure with original, old paint. The black paper Ye Olde Curiosity Shop label on the back dates this pole to the first ten years of the 20th century. The large, almond-shaped eyes on the human figure connects this piece to older styles of Nuu-chah-nulth carving, as does the shape of the wolf figure’s head. 16"H
