Stories & Legends :

Each scarf and shawl is inspired by a traditional story or legend.

The shawls are made using an expensive burn out process which creates a foreground of shimmering velvet designs on a dark background of shear, semi-transparent chiffon.

 

Scarves & Shawls by Stories & Legends

Cory & Jean Mann, Creators of Stories & Legends

Shown above are Cory Mann (Tlingit name: Gutchquena , which means Head of a Mud Shark Capturing Its Prey ), creator of Stories & Legends, and his grandmother, Jeanette Mann (Tlingit name: Xhou-do-skay , which means Paying Off a Voice ).

One day in 2002, a friend suggested that Cory invest in his uncle's designs and make scarves with Tlingit designs on them. Well, one thing led to another and that's exactly what happened. Cory would like to thank Nicole Zantello for her efforts and energy dedicated to this project; without her help these beautiful creations would not have been possible. Thanks to Nicole for being an honorary Tlingit.

The scarves and shawls shown below are brought to you by an Alaska Native Tlingit from the Eagle Thunderbird Clan. A percentage of the proceeds from any sales will support programs for Tlingit youth and elders and indigenous people around the world.

The rich history of the Tlingit people is passed on to you through their art work.
