This beautiful mirrored display case was a highlight of Sockeye Sam's trading post in Ketchikan, Alaska. The usual tourist stuff aside, this shop featured many outstanding pieces of gemstone jewelry, small stoneware carvings, and fine wildlife sculptures. I was entranced by these works, which ranged in price from $695 to $1,995. (Sorry I couldn't keep my reflection out of these shots.)
