Description

wood, traces of insect caused damage, base

The post on which the figure was worked is only vaguely present. The figure used to hold a staff in its hands. On the back there are remains of black patina, encrusted in places. Presumably once used as “kudio bochio”, which acted as a guard for living persons.
