Eskimo Carved Ivory "Floating" Goose

I have never had an Eskimo carving like this. The goose is carved as if it is floating on water. It has a black head and tail carved from baleen inset into its body. The contrast of the black head and tail with the white of the ivory makes this a very striking piece.
