Bear, Frog, Killerwhale, Raven & Eagle Chest
Don Yeomans
Price upon requestRed Cedar wood, Acrylic paint
“This was the last chest made by my friend, Larry Rosso, before he died. In fact, I removed some wood from the front side, as he had already begun carving it. My goal in designing this large box was to make each side as interesting as the front. Quite often, only the front side of the chests were given special attention, with the back and side designs being so much weaker and ill-defined.
The front side [of this chest] is a Grizzly and a Frog, while the back is a split Killerwhale. A Raven adorns one side, with an Eagle on the other.”

Double Raven Bentwood Box
Don Yeomans
CA$11,000.00Red Cedar wood, Acrylic paint
“In Haida mythology, Raven is a prominent character. His involvement with the creation of man and the capturing of the Sun and Moon are famous legends regularly portrayed in Northwest Coast art. Not only does Raven exist in nature, but he has supernatural shapeshifting abilities that allow him to interact with characters and kingdoms of the spirit world.
On this box, the Ravens slip through a portal that is present in both worlds. Emerging from one dimension to another – still Raven, but profoundly different.” – Don Yeomans
