Working primarily in finely split bowhead‑whale baleen and often collaborating within the Hank family of weavers, she produced tightly coiled lidded baskets frequently topped with carved ivory finials that reflected local subsistence life. Her work is documented in museum collections, including the National Museum of the American Indian, and appears in Indian Arts and Crafts Board records and auction listings that affirm her standing among the leading Point Hope basketmakers of her generation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51161101238437,"sku":"260928-01","price":1670.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/260928-01_6.jpg?v=1794435746","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/inuit-baleen-and-walrus-ivory-finial-and-base-baskety-by-eunice-hank","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
