Very nice. Do you have the story on them? They look like they're from either of the Tlingit, Haida or Tsimshian tribes, either from Annette Island or British Columbia. I believe there's a tribe in northwest Washington whose art is similar to theirs too. I have a pair of carved earrings from the Tsimshian tribe.

I think that most are Haida, but some of the art sold here may be Kwakiutl or other nations. Here is a shot of the window I snatched the images from, and two more masks.
