"Siassi Plate, Oceanic Art, Tribal Art, Papua New Guinea, Pacific Art"
The Siassi bowl is also called "food cup". It is a prestigious object that has two functions: a common function consisting of using it as a dish during ceremonial rites, a function as an object of exchange between the tribes of the Tami and Siassi islands who know and can produce it and the tribes of the other islands or the coasts of the mainland who are looking for it without being able to make it (they do not have the right to do so). Wood. Approx. 82 x 31 x 11 cm / €350 including shipping.
