Carved Wood Tribal Style Sculpture - 9 x 44 x 6 A tall, slender, carved wood sculpture featuring a stack of stylized anthropomorphic forms, mounted on a squared black base. The object is predominantly dark, likely stained or painted black, with contrasting reddish-brown carved sections that highlight textured details. The uppermost element is a dark ovoid form with scale-like carving, topped by a pointed reddish-brown finial. Below this, a head with a black face and reddish-brown textured hair or headdress is visible, adorned with small silver-toned studs and wire details. This is followed by a section featuring vertical reddish-brown carved elements with a textured pattern, beneath which a second head, similar in style with a black face and silver-toned adornments, is positioned directly above the black square base. No discernible text or maker's marks are visible.
