PNG PIG CARVING- Massim Ceromonial Carving Trobriand Islands
27cm long, 8.5cm high at rump, weights 633g nett.
He rests his weight on 3 legs steadily (rear left leg is a tad shorter)
Pre-owned, vintage (late 20thC), and in very good condition, with natural treacle-coloured patina to the wood, and no splits or chips to the timber grain.
At some time he has suffered a bruise under his chin (see pic) - doesn't detract from his appeal at all.
Solid, heavy timber with traditional tribal carved designs decorating his torso.
Authentic piece, stored sealed.
