ESKIMO REINDEER CARVING: Can anyone help me identify these?

Filed under: please,Portobello Road — tmooresr @ 3:14 pm

In one of the stalls on Portobello Road that sells a bit of everything, my eyes zeroed in on these five small carvings.  I was quite taken by them.  I asked the dealer when he knew about them.  He said the lady who sold them to him reported that her father had purchased them in the Northern Territories of Canada many years ago.  She said that she believed them to be carved reindeer bone.  I decided that I would have them, but I know very little about them.  Can anyone help me?  I would be grateful.
