Description
This is a very old and rare old "Guardian" sculpture from Nepal and the tribal peoples of that region. The locals carve such idols as guardians to set at crossroads, natural springs and other sites around the village. The Sculpture was carved from a single piece of wood with hands shown in prayer posture, though locally it is considered a greeting. The statue measures 13.75 inches tall. Well weathered, small chips, loss to feet, and there are remains of an old label on the side, and remains of a wax seal indicating it was shipped out of India as an antique.
