Description | Coast Salish (Squamish) Nation Jim Charlie was born September 10th, 1967 on the Capilano Reserve in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. He is a member of the Squamish Nation of the Coast Salish peoples. Squamish territory encompasses much of Greater Vancouver inluding North and West Vancouver, Howe Sound and lands and rivers all the way up to Whistler, BC. Jim comes from a long line of artists; therefore, it was only natural that he began to carve at a young age. Jim is the grandson of Dominique Charlie, who passed on some years ago. He was a highly-regarded carver during his time. He educated Jim on the many stories and legends common to the Salish people and inspired him throughout his years of carving. Jim studied under Phil Janze, a well established Gitksan artist, in order to become more proficient in achieving greater depth and a different perspective of style. Jim has been influenced by many well known artists and strives to achieve the utmost quality in his work. He is a versatile artist who enjoys depicting a variety of legends. His style is refined, uncomplicated, and dimensional with a northern influence. Jim is one of many Northwest Coast Native artists who are working to uphold their cultural traditions through their artwork and craft. |

Goat Horn Ladle
Elsie John
CA$2,375.00Goat Horn, engraved, with Yellow Cedar wood baseSpoons and ladles were traditionally made from either cedar wood or the horn of a mountain sheep, and their handles were carved with family crest images. Historically, these exquisitely sculptured objects were primarily created by people in Northern Nations, and were highly sought after by other nations. During potlatches [festive gatherings], cedar ladles decorated with the hosting family’s crests were used to serve food, while the elaborately carved mountain sheep spoons were distributed as gifts among the many guests.
Today, spoon and ladle productions are based on these traditional objects and are meant to be both objects of function and display. In addition to traditional mediums such as cedar wood, goat or mountain sheep horn, many modern-day spoons and ladles are constructed of gold, silver and pewter.
