"NUCHATLITH"
Provenance:
These Nootka Indian items were owned by my grandmother, Bethine Flynn. She was gifted the woven items, including the teapot, directly from the Indians living in Nuchatlitz (“Nuchatlaht” tribe) on Nootka Island, British Columbia. History: In 1957 Bethine and her husband purchased 100+ acres on the Northwest tip of Nootka Island and lived there (Flynn’s Cove). The nearest neighbors were the Indian of Nuchatlitz, located 4 miles away by sea. Descriptions of the friendships between Bethine and the Nuchatlitz Indians are chronicled in her books, “The Flying Flynns” published in 1979 by Seaview Books, New York, and the sequel “Flynn’s Cove” published in 1986 by Porthole Press Ltd, Sydney, British Columbia.
