Paar wanten

The mittens are made of caribou skin and lined with duffle, decorated with a fur edging, and embroidered with a small flower pattern. Interesting is that the design of the mittens reminds not only to Inuit styles (mittens and not gloves- with fingers and the shape of the wrist-piece, ) but also in shape or decoration of First Nations cultures (Plateau, Chippewa, Cree). The Inuit mittens fit in a changing Inuit cultural tradition, in the past based on furs exclusively, since the 1980s seamstresses sew mittens with fur edgings, duffle-fabrics, embroidered with flower or animal patterns.
