The West-Coast Indigenous Raven design on this cushion was originally created by the late Kwakwaka’wakw Master Carver, Marcus Alfred. He gave the drawing to his uncle Bruce Alfred, who worked with the family of Arnulfo Lazaro in Oaxaca Mexico to hand weave it, and render it in stunning natural dye colours.
Royalties from the sale of this design go to Marcus' children.
