Don't be upsetting Lulu
I got this one in Laos at a street market. I loved the colors it’s painted on wood.
My weird primitive woodcarving. Purchased on Sulawesi though they said it came from one of the islands off West Papua.
Was having a Spring clean yesterday and found a suitcase full of pictures I'd not seen for several years, I packed them away again in bubble wrap with a letter to the kids saying this is your inheritance ...
A few examples..
This last one is signed by the pilot..
Let's see what today's Spring clean unearths..
^^ Knowsitlike and Misskit:
They look a bit like two of the three wise monkeys: Speak no evil (hand near the mouth), hear no evil (hand near the ears) and the third "see no evil" missing.
^ not personal at all as it is 35 odd years ago now! We lived in Dar and we have quite a few carvings in Ebony, the stacked family trees and the like do they count? @Nev they remind me of Ubud monkey forest but the thing we have is more like a little gremlin with some definite voodoo vibes he’s certainly not cute
I bought this years ago at some place that imported stuff from Asia I think this is from Indonesia.
The piece of wood is interesting.
Ha, maybe I'll go turn it around then.
Any ideas about this one ?

Any ideas about this one ? There's what's probably a sword missing from the top left hand.
Material is bronze / gun metal.
