Whale Ceremonial Dish

This Inuit Whale Ceremonial Dish is on display at the University of Alaska Museum, Fairbanks. Though I don't know much about it, the dish has always stayed on my mind. It looks like a float with loon feather sails.

 

I've thought about making my own ceremonial dish using feathers I've collected from our beach. I'd fill it with as much as the dish could carry, then float it in our lake and let the real work begin.
