Ancestor Figurine Worn Arm Atoni West Timor Indonesia

Item Details

Description

Ancestor figurine with worn arm - Atoni - West Timor, Indonesia
DIMENSIONS: cm 20 (inches: 8") Weight: 200 g
DESCRIPTION: Very fine carved old ancestor figure, field collected during my last trip. It depits the deceased in the classic fetal position, squatting with hands joined in the chest, face with detailed features that show a proud expression.
Remarkable and refined work of carving, with the base decorated with typical kaif motif. The arms have been damaged at some point, as well as the nose and the right ankle but judging by their patina it seems it was a not recent event.
