Late 19th C. PNG Wood Food Hook, ex-Kennedy

Item Details

Description

Papua New Guinea, Middle Sepik River, late 19th to early 20th century CE. This is a carved wood "food hook", that is guaranteed not a tourist piece! A (female?) figure, painted red with cream and black details, she stands with her hands on her hips, dressed in cowry shells and body art, perched atop a hook with eye-like designs that call to mind the ceremonial items of the yam festivals that this area is known for. Elaborate hooks like this one were used to preserve food; both by hanging them and by calling upon the spirit they believe is within them to slow spoilage. Size: 8.25" W x 23.6" H (21 cm x 59.9 cm)

Provenance: Ex - George Kennedy Collection

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
