Historical Document Case

March 28, 2016

The Tsawwassen Treaty is known historically as the first treaty negotiated under the British Columbia Treaty Commission Process. It is the culmination of decades of work and is lauded as a way forward in First  Nation/Canadian relations. When looking for an appropriate way of housing this irreplaceable document the job was given to Spirit Works. It was agreed that a bentwood box would be the best choice. As a matter of tradition we would keep our most precious possessions in these. Furthermore the Cedar acts as a repellent for pests that might consider paper to be a delicacy, which is why chests are commonly lined with Cedar. We further added protective glass so the document could be placed on display.
