Carved out of ironwood, this spoon handle from the island of Sumba has a slightly shining reddish-brown patina. The handle is at least 40 years old. The figure features a smiling face and a symmetrical body in the traditional Sumbanese posture. The stand was custom designed to fit the contours of the handle.
