The figure conceived as the upper half of a carved stake, as is sometimes seen, however the typical face with high rounded forehead, above arching brow with one eye intentionally gouged out. The carving very fine and of early Lulua style with narrowing tot the limbs and flanges at the joints; the waits with glass beads. A fine and unusual piece. On a custom base.
Provenance: Property of a Private West Coast collector
