This is a heavy-for-its size (about six pounds) sculpture in a heavy, dark wood like mahogany (ironwood?), measuring about 10" high by about 5" on a side. In addition to the dark heavy wood, there are carved teeth of bone, and carefully applied white paint detail in the eyes. Carved into the base are the words "Ngambela Mataa". I have googled the term and it seems to be applied to a figure who was in Zambia in the late 19th century to as late as 1928, when there was some murder there...

A nicely painted work on canvas, 22" by 18 1/2" in trim black frame, the subject a seated Buddha in a complex background, signed at lower right corner in Thai. The contemporary painting is entirely in shades of brown, with gold mixed skillfully in. Condition is excellent.

Interesting painted bark piece from the Pacific islands, probably Tonga, Fiji Samoa, or other island in Oceania, 18 3/4" by 26 1/2" (21 1/2" by 32" framed). The bark appears to have been laid on a thin board. This 20th century work was likely brought back to the US in the 1960's by a tourist, as decorative ethnographic art. Note the old San Francisco pre-zip code framer's label. This item would make for a fine addition to your tropical or "Hawaiiana" style interior.

Carved and painted ceremonial mask from Africa, 14 1/2" by 5 1/4" by 3" deep, likely mid to late 20th century, with subtle coloring and the primitive look that inspired Picasso and other famous artists early in the century. Some wear on the nose from handling adds to the appeal of this decorative piece.

Own the art that inspired Picasso and so many other 20th century artists........the sculpture originating in Africa. This is a later 20th century hand-made piece. Note the painted eyebrow area, the drilled rows of holes, and the interesting surface and color. I don't know the area of the continent from which this came but I suppose a specialist collector could tell immediately. It's a very interesting and decorative piece for the home. Size is approximately 12" by 6 1/2" by 3".

A late 20th century oil on canvas painting, the scene a classic, arid, Southwest landscape, with two Native American New Mexico pottery ceramic bowls in the foreground.

Condition is generally very good, I note a very small puncture in that border area at lower left, which is easy to overlook and which could be easily remedied...
