First Nations Haida Argillite Totem by Tom Hans

Item Details

Description

Tom Hans (First Nations / Canadian, Haida, b. 1925). Totem Pole. Argillite sculpture, n.d. Signed with location on verso. A lovely argillite totem pole, hand-carved by the prolific Haida artist Tom Hans to display, from top to bottom, a bird, perhaps a falcon, perched on a column, a wolf, and a seated beaver holding a human head. Size: 1.75" W x 8.25" H (4.4 cm x 21 cm)

Tom Hans held Eagle as his family crest, and his Haida name was Aye Aye. He was one of the most prolific argillite carvers living in British Columbia. Born in 1925, he grew up in Skidegate and started to carve argillite at an early age. His grandfather was Henry Young, and his father was Ike Hans. His father both taught and encouraged him in the art of argillite carving. For over fifty years, Tom was dedicated to carving argillite, and teaching younger carvers. In terms of Tom's carving style, he often depicts legends and myths, rather than singular crest figures. His pieces also contain a great amount of detail. At 12 years of age Tom carved his first pole, which still sits in the owners house in Vancouver, BC. Each pole represents one of the Old Legends as told to Tom in his youth by his grandfather, Henry Young. Tom resides in Vancouver, BC and still carves the argillite poles, implementing a legend from the past into each one.
