Alaska art dealers will tell you that the Alaskan land is home to art that is unique and truly unusual--and among the most finely crafted in the world. Native Alaskans make this art using techniques that have been passed down since the dawn of Alaska itself. The country is also home to artists who emigrated to Alaska and have been captivated by its majesty and traditions, and who have chosen to make art that is reflective of its people and wildlife.
You don't need to consult with art dealers to find the best art Alaska has to offer. Alaska Trading Co. showcases a selection of Alaskan art that is among the most comprehensive in the land. We offer totems made by native Alaskans from the town of Ketchikan, which has been hailed as the totem capital of Alaska. Crafted from yellow cedar, each totem tells a story of its ancient homeland.
Fine Art and Alaska Art Dealers
Soapstone carvings are available that will take your breath away with their sheer precision and beauty. Included in our collection are carvings made of argillite. This is a black stone found only in British Columbia that is often used in the religious ceremonies of the native Alaskan people.
Part of the slate family, argillite achieves a pearl-like luminosity when worn against the skin. It won't take a gaggle of art dealers to tell you that the artwork offered by the Alaska Trading Co. distinguishes itself from that offered by competitors by way of its breadth and quality. The best Alaskan art is yours for the taking.
