| The muscular, male, ancestral image with emphasized head and sober facial expression, made for use as a flute stop during ceremonial occasions. Part of the contents of a sacred 'spirit house' which housed numerous objects, this very fine carving was collected ca.1941 by a surveyor for the military doing tests for mosquito control prior to US occupation of the South Pacific. In perfect condition with fine, aged patina. 14"H x 3.25"W. From New Guinea. | |||||
