Largely attributed to the Copper Inuit, the caribou antler bag handle was a simple implement that aided in the transport and storage of a most unwieldy item - the blood bag. Blood was an important food item that, absent a bucket or pail, was stored in a bag made from a caribou stomach.

This contoured horn handle, with velvety patina, is decorated with traditional designs patterned after several museum examples. Complete with hide strip of appropriate length.
