Original Message:   Mother's Day Sunday Show 'n Tell...Bone and Argillite
First, not a bead but a small collectible, no provenance but we believe this puffin must have been made by an indigenous person from the north Pacific region...he's carved of bone, stands 95mm and weighs 2.5 ounces.

Next, a signed Haida argillite pendant, Earl Jones Raven '85. Measures 35mm x 40mm. A most interesting Wiki on argillite:
