The figure is defined with incised lines and thoughtful shaping that follow the natural contours of the wood, demonstrating artisan craftsmanship and skilled handwork. The organic form enhances the expressive character of the carving. Measures approximately 13 1/8″ H x 4 1/4″ W x 3″ D. Good condition with natural wood variation.
