<p>[QUOTE=&quot;all_fakes, post: 4519960, member: 55&quot;]Right. Same family. To elaborate or bore people a bit, the Nuu-chah-nulth style for the last 150 years or so has been quite angular, and not generally featuring the complex ovoids and u-forms that are part of the Northwest Coast formline style, though the Nuu-chah-nulth are close neighbors of the Kwakwaka&#039;wakw. It is believed that in older times they did share the Northern style, and it is not really known what lead to the change to the current style. A number of carvers have, and do, mix the two styles. Below is a mask illustrating a fairly pure contemporary Nuu-chah-nulth style in a mask.&nbsp; The right-angles, for example, would be considered incorrect in a Kwakwaka&#039;wakw mask.</p><p><font size="6">[ATTACH=full]398144[/ATTACH] </font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
