Argillite


The Haida Nation is renowned for its "Black Slate" or Argillite carving found on the
Queen Charlotte Islands off the coast of British Columbia.

Argillite is a relatively soft stone to carve.  Apart from small totem poles, the kinds
of objects carved from argillite include plates with carved and incised designs,
pendants, pipes, small boxes and sculptured figures.
