Coast Salish wooden eagle masks are traditional carvings from Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast, particularly the Salish nations in British Columbia and Washington state. These masks are typically hand-carved from red cedar, alder, or yellow cedar, often painted in bold colors like red, black, and turquoise, and adorned with materials such as cedar bark, abalone inlays, or feathers. The eagle symbolizes power, prestige, vision, and a close connection to the creator or spiritual realm — it is revered as the "master of the skies" and frequently appears in ceremonies representing strength, wisdom, and lasting dedication (as eagles mate for life).
