My name is George Carteeti, I am Tlingit from the village of Hoonah Alaska, the largest village of the Tlingit people, my
Tlingit name is Stu Woo Kaa. My sister Carrie, also a traditional native artists Tlingit name is Yeith Gaa Goo Geth, our
mother is Ruth Lindoff, Ste ado. Our linage comes from the village of Klukwan, 90 miles North West of Hoonah. The Brown
Bear House (Xoots Xit) is our clan emblem.
We were taught the traditional arts from our Mother who in turned learned from her Mother, our Maternal Grandmother Annie
Hotch of Klukwan.
When making our traditional robes we hand sew each robe taking approximately 2 weeks to complete customized robes. We
use a wool-blended felt and Mother of Peral buttons for our robes and cover the heading with fur and leather lacing for the
ties. Our robes are on commision, the average price we charge is $750.00 USD depending on the material used and includes
shipping and insurance for our products. We have various peices on hand already made but will gladly custom make our Wool
Robes with any applique you may desire.
We also specialize in custome made moccasins made either from Moose hide or deer, laced with beaver fur, or if you'd preffer,
faux fur, some substitutions can cost more rather then lower the price, please email me for a quote.
