Greenland Doll Inuit Hunter

Male doll representing the Inuit people of Greenland. He is a hunter, dressed in fur to endure the cold. His pants appear to be made of wool to look like the traditional pants made of polar bear fur. His anorak seems to be real sealskin. Greenland is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark and part of the North American continent.

Folklore is in the air… uhm… ear!

Postcard

No postcard available. There should be a nice postcard here that matches this doll, to show you how the people living in Greenland are dressed in their traditional costume.

There is nothing suitable in our postcard books at the moment, too bad!

Happy collecting,
